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.

Ford’s Thunderbird or T-Bird is most well known for creating the American segment of Personal Luxury Cars. Aimed at rivaling Europe’s Grand Tourers, the first generation of T-Bird was a stylish and powerful two-door, two-seat coupe or convertible, with a comfortable and lavishly-equipped passenger cabin plus a roomy trunk. It was meant as a car that would be owned by the wealthy and driven by them across great distances with nary an ache or pain at the end. Subsequent generations gained a rear seat too, since Ford realized that sticking to two seats was limiting their target market. Made for ten generations between 1955 and 1997, the T-Bird firmly entrenched itself in American automotive culture. In 2002, Ford, feeling a bit misty-eyed, decided to make a eleventh generation as a homage to the original. This eleventh generation was produced for just three years and saw over 68,000 units sold. Today, we’ve got one of those cars, a 2003 Ford Thunderbird for sale from Sterling, Alaska. It’s got super low mileage too, less than 8,000 in fact, making it an absolute steal and a fantastic addition to someone who wants a definitive future classic that can be driven and enjoyed from today onwards.
With a name like Thunderbird, it’s hard to not get your pulse racing with anticipation. But hang on, Ford’s Thunderbird isn’t a screaming race machine. On the contrary, it’s America’s take on the Grand Tourers of Europe, and called a Personal Luxury Car. Introduced in 1955, the first generation Thunderbird was a strict two-seater and aimed to offer a value proposition of no-compromise comfort cruising across long distances. It’s a majestic thing, and you’ll see why as soon as you cast eyes on this first-generation 1956 Ford Thunderbird from Fairview, Texas.

What’s this? A crossover with electric power bearing the holy Mustang name upon its valance? Yes, Ford did something rather daring a few years back. They released the Ford Mustang Mach-E in 2021, which is on sale to date. Some may argue that it dilutes the Mustang’s hallowed reputation, but was well-received. In fact, it went on to win North American Car of the Year in 2021 itself! If you’re intrigued, here’s a sub 30k-mile 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT from San Diego, California for sale. It’s a fantastic choice as a family crossover if you want something electric, practical, and outdoorsy.
