Write a review
The 1960 Ford Thunderbird was the last of the "Square Birds." It continued in the vein of powerful engines for the slick four-seater, with several new additions.
The base engine remained a 5.8-liter, 352-ci V8 rated at 300 horsepower, while the step-up was the very powerful 7.0-liter, 430-ci V8 rated at 350 horsepower.
To celebrate the outgoing of the second generation of Thunderbirds, a "Golden Edition" was available, which featured the first steel sliding sunroof.
Sales remained strong, with 92,843 Thunderbirds sold, 2,536 of which were the "Golden Edition" and 11,860 of which were convertibles.

Many reasons to Love this Bird. It was the last year of the Square Bird. It was the last year ford offered the Monster V8 430 cu in Lincoln Engine. It was the only year this Car almost won the Datona 500 race but for a small part it would have. Aside from that , I drove one for 6 years and it was a Hell of a car. Dec 30, 2022
