Ford wanted to bring Americans a slice of what Europeans were enjoying as the Grand Tourer. The result was the Ford Thunderbird, creating a segment with it called the personal luxury car. The Thunderbird is so iconic in American history that ten generations were produced from 1955 to 1997, with a retro-modern eleventh generation commemorating the car's heritage from 2002 to 2005. This particular 1960 Ford Thunderbird Coupe is from the second generation and has an easy 37,000 miles to its name. It's an excellent candidate for any classic car aficionado, as it's the perfect antidote to today's digitally-drenched world.

Known as the creator of the Personal Luxury Car segment, Ford’s Thunderbird drew inspiration from Europe’s grand tourers—machines built for comfort, elegance, and long-distance cruising.

Ford’s Bronco was the first Sport Utility Vehicle – that’s SUV to you and me – to be developed by Ford. When it was released in 1966, it became clear that the Blue Oval had knocked it out of the park on their first try.

Owning a classic Bronco is a bucket list item for many, and we’ve got one vehicle up for grabs today. Here’s a second-generation 1978 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT up for sale in Downey, California. The second generation was introduced in 1978, making this vehicle straight from the first year of production.

Designed by the legendary Harley Earl, the first-generation Chevrolet Corvette heralded an era of American automotive greatness that continues today, eight generations and more than seventy years later. Introduced in 1953 as an all-American two-seat sports car, the C1 went through several developmental hurdles before maturing into the beautifully refined machine seen here.
