This ’60 Ford Thunderbird is currently for sale on eBay. front viewĪlthough a 3-speed manual transmission was standard, nearly 98% of all Thunderbird’s in 1960 had automatic transmission! This would have cost original buyers an additional $242 for the Cruise-O-Matic.įord sold 11,860 Thunderbird Convertibles for the 1960 model year at a base price of $4,222. The T-Bird came with a (Y code) 352 cubic inch V8 Thunderbird Special V8 engine with 4-barrel carburetor as standard. Great looking turquoise and white interior
This is the correct turquoise interior that matches the top. The inside of the Thunderbird has unique cockpit styling and features bucket seats and console, something we take for granted now, was something that hadn’t really been seen in American cars until this generation of T-Bird. One of the most recognizable features of the ’60 models was the row of three taillights on each side rather than two that had been there previously. Biggest recent gains have been made by the massive 1967-73 T-Birds: not sporty at all with ‘suicide’ doors on the big Landau and no convertible. This was the final year for the second generation Thunderbirds (Square Birds), an era that marked the start of the four-seater T-Bird. Four-seat, 1958-60 Squarebirds are practical and, except for convertibles, not expensive either, but you can pay 70,000 for a top-quality 1961-66 Hardtop and 100K for a Roadster soft-top.
Fast forward 25 years and the car is for sale once more. This particular convertible was purchased by the last owner back in 1995 and he drove it on special occasions until 2005 when it was placed in storage.
