Description of 1960 Ford Thunderbird |
This 1960 Thunderbird represents one of the rarest builds for the second-generation of the model. For the 1960 model year, Ford was approached by Golde and Company from West Germany and were convinced that adding sunroofs to a model would broaden appeal and put the option on the map for Ford. After much deliberation, Ford agreed and added the option, at a cost of $212.40, for the 1960 model. Despite heavy promotion, Ford only produced 2,536 of the models with a sunroof, leaving remaining "Golde Top" cars a rare find. This 1960 Thunderbird Golde Top is a fantastic example of a well-restored and maintained rare T-Bird. with a 352CI V8, automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, power windows and power seats, the car is an absolute joy to own and drive. On the interior, the car bears red leather seating for 4, an option that was added just 2-years previous, and is in fantastic condition. On the exterior, the red paint on this T-Bird gleams and the brightwork pops against the paint. With wide whitewall tires, 5 wire wheels and continental kit, this car exemplifies luxury in 1960. This T-Bird is truly a piece of Ford history and its rarity should not be overlooked. Unless stated otherwise, vehicle mileage on title is exempt and unknown if original. |
