This is a beautiful example of a classic 1960 Thunderbird Convertible. Mechanically rebuilt engine, trans, new brake lines, new fuel lines, headers and new dual exhaust system with a sweet tone. Carburetor replaced with an Edelbrock for dependability. This is a California Car, purchased at San Jose Ford in Nov/1959, and is 100% rust free. It has been garaged for it's whole life, and loved by both of it's two owners. This car is appreciating very dramatically as the market begins to realize how few of them exist in great condition. If I wasn't planning on leaving the country, there is no way I would sell this, but I must. This was one of Fords first unibody constructed passenger vehicles, allowing for a much lower-to-the-ground, sleek look. Because they were unsure of how strong it would need to be to support a convertible top, a necessary feature for a T-bird, Ford made the frame of this car absolutely bulletproof and far stronger than they needed to be. This fact became evident to the demolition derby racers of the 1970's and 80's, and huge numbers of these cars were sacrificed to this end...contributing to the rarity of solid cars available today. This car has been rebuilt for dependability. You could feel comfortable taking this on long trips, or using as a daily driver. It also comes with everything you need to return it to a numbers matching original car. I am the second owner. I have the original wheels, tires and hubcaps, original exhaust manifolds, carb, generator, and "cruise-a-matic" transmission..(has a C-6 now-much better transmission) The interior has been completely redone with two-tone leather and a factory fresh dashboard cover. The original tube AM radio works! She drives like a dream and loves the freeway...everywhere I go, heads turn! I'll miss her.
