In 1954, Ford dropped a bomb that would shake up the automotive industry. They essentially created a segment called the Personal Luxury Car with the introduction of the Thunderbird. Enjoying a production run from 1954 to 1997 spanning ten generations, and a revival of an eleventh generation that ran between 2001 and 2005, the Thunderbird nameplate has been firmly cemented in Ford history as the car that Americanized what was previously known in Continental Europe as the Grand Tourer. Why not get in on the T-Bird action with this 1960 Ford Thunderbird on sale? This Maine-based car has seen some refurbishment and looks great.
The second-generation Thunderbird ran between 1958 and 1960 and brought some really stunning designs. Elwood Engel penned the lines that you see in these pictures on this 1960 Ford Thunderbird, that wears a suave black paintwork. Parked next to contemporary American cars of the Fifties and Sixties, you really see how low the Thunderbird is, as it was nine inches shorter than the average American car, and ground clearance was just 5.8 inches, giving the impression of it just sailing along the road on those beautiful wire wheels with white-wall tires. All badging and chrome work looks great on this car too. Pop open those doors and see just how long they are, no longer does one need to push or tilt the front seats forwards in order to gain access to the rear. The interior features a lovely art-deco late Fifties theme, in black and white. This generation marks when the Thunderbird first gained a rear seat to accommodate an additional two occupants, in order to increase its appeal across a broader segment. This car has received a new dash panel and rebuilt fuel and temperature gauges. Interior features and chrome work are in great condition too.
This 1960 Ford Thunderbird is powered by a 352ci V8 engine that is actually the smaller of the two offerings on the second generation, the other one being a 430ci V8. The engine put out 300hp and 395lb-ft to the rear wheels via a three-speed Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission. This car also has power steering and power brakes with a new brake booster. A recent oil change is reported, as well as a new starter. The owner is unsure about whether the motor and transmission are numbers-matching.

In the ʼ00s, Ford decided to honor its timeless Thunderbird personal luxury car with a retro-modern eleventh generation. Produced for just three short years, this eleventh-generation T-Bird saw over 60,000 units made. Heavily inspired by the first generation from the 1950s, this new T-Bird sat on a modern platform, and used a V8 from Jaguar, of all places. Today, we’ve got a 2003 Ford Thunderbird for those who are intrigued by this pastiche of ʼ50s styling and ʼ00s mechanicals and creature comforts. The car has done only 8,312 miles, making it a real rare find, and a definitive future classic.
In 1955, the Ford Thunderbird entered the American luxury car market and shook it up. Aimed at bringing Americans a taste of the European Grand Touring experience, the Thunderbird was called the Personal Luxury Car. It was a powerful two-seater with a suitably spacious trunk and all the creature comforts of the day. Aimed at covering hundreds of miles with ease, the T-Bird quickly became a cult classic. Ford made ten generations until 1997, but they had a brief change of heart in 2002. Hence, a retro-modern eleventh generation was released, and made until 2005. Just 60,000 were sold, making this generation relatively rare in comparison with the early ones from the Fifties and Sixties. So, if you’ve wanted to try out one of these curios, check out this 4,475-mile 2002 Ford Thunderbird that’s for sale right now with us.
Ford’s Thunderbird is responsible for creating the Personal Luxury Car segment in the United States, a segment that the famous, wealthy and powerful flocked to like moths to a flame in the fifties through eighties. Personal Luxury Cars were modeled on Europe’s Grand Tourers, aimed at providing smooth, swift and serene transportation across great distances while offering all the luxury niceties and creature comforts that were cutting-edge at the time. Introduced in 1955, the first-gen Thunderbird would run for a mere three model years before the second generation came about. With a mere 53,166 made, it’s not so easy to find a great example these days. However, we at Exotic Car Trader have developed somewhat of a knack for finding and offering great examples of iconic cars. This 1957 Ford Thunderbird is no exception. We’re told that the car was fully restored around 15 years ago, which explains why it still looks in great order.
To truly understand the significance of the Ford Bronco, we need to take a step back and look at the pre-1970s Bronco models. The mid-1960s Bronco was undoubtedly groundbreaking, and for the new decade, they underwent significant refinement, including improved handling, enhanced suspension systems, and a more powerful engine lineup. These improvements turned the Bronco from a conventional off-road vehicle into a competent and adaptable SUV that could handle a variety of terrains with ease. By the year 1970, the Ford Bronco was a highly renowned name and was considered a vehicle ahead of its time. What we have here is a 1970 Ford Bronco Restoration with just 12,925 miles on its clock and a lively V8 under its hood. Located in Los Angeles, California, this beauty is all set up to accompany you on your off-roading journeys.
Born in 1948, the Ford F-Series is the longest-running pickup truck model in the United States. It’s now on the fourteenth generation, and is starting to embrace electric power too. That’s why picking up a classic or modern classic F-Series will always be a great way to celebrate a vehicle that mobilized countless Americans, and bolstered their small businesses to no end. This 1992 Ford F-250 XLT will no doubt have done so for its owner when brand-new. Now, this 133,879-mile truck has received a restored body and some new parts. The current owner says that documentation and invoices for work done on this Virginia-based truck are available too.
Some may say that a classic car is an investment in one's well-being. Take a simple drive of a car from yesteryear and the trials of the past week will simply vanish. Present here is automotive therapy and takes shape with this 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. With a full restoration reported by the current owner, this first-generation pony is looking for its new stable and can be yours today!
