Ford Thunder Bird 1960
Submitted by Rick Feibusch

This beautiful 1960 Thunderbird is owned by John Geary of Manchester, TN. With 106,000 original miles on the odometer, this example appears to be a combination of a well maintained, clean original and an aged, high-quality cosmetic restoration. A non-stock addition is the set of 1963 Thunderbird chrome wire wheels and tri-bar hubcaps fitted with correct period width whitewall tires.

It is quite obvious that this is a nice original car that has been well kept by owners who understood and respected that this was Ford's top-of-the-line luxury-performance model. While not a show car, it is in solid semi-original condition and is a great example of the first series of four-place T-birds.

While John's car came fitted with the standard 352 cube FE series big block, the car was also available with the, then new, 390 performance engine OR a massive Lincoln 430 cube monster V8. Another unusual option available in 1960 was the sliding steel sunroof, something not often seen on an American car.
