Delightful chrome details abound on the second-generation Thunderbird, including the little ornaments atop each front fender, the Thunderbird script on the rocket-shaped body side moldings, and the bright chrome “gills” on the rear quarters, again reinforcing Ford's fondness of rocket-inspired design. Paint and bodywork are well done and while it's not a show piece, it does look fantastic heading down the road or at your local cruise-in. The 1960 'Bird's many scoops and creases are subdued a bit with white, making this a handsome car that doesn't look fussy.

It's not bright refrigerator white, of course, but a creamy soft white that nails the Corinthian White Ford intended. The classic combinations never go out of style, and the Thunderbird wears white paint better than most of its contemporaries. No longer bargain-basement specials, cars like this pretty white-on-black '60 T-Bird hardtop are seriously hot collectables that are also exceptionally nice to drive. VERY CLEAN T-BIRD, 352 V8, AUTO TRANS, POWER WINDOWS, RUNS VERY SMOOTH!Īfter years of living in the first-generation Thunderbird's shadow, the first of the 4-seater 'Birds are finally getting some serious respect.
