After three successful years of competing with the Corvette for sales, Ford correctly understood that far more American buyers were interested in buying a sporty-looking luxury car rather than a full-bore sports car. The motoring press felt the same way, and in 1958, the Thunderbird won the coveted Motor Trend Car of the Year award. Stylistically, the 1960 Thunderbird was little changed from the two prior model years, with the addition of a new grille, triple taillight clusters and minor trim changes. This Corinthian White example is nicely presented with a red and white interior and features fender skirts, wide whitewall tires, a V-8 engine, automatic transmission, dual mirrors, factory hubcaps and style in abundance.
