    There is a you tube video of advertisements for the 1960 Thunderbird. 2 of the ads clearly show the sunroof being opened by turning the handle on the roof and just sliding it back, no switch involved. I think possibly someone sealed that one shut with something due to leakage?. sure it could be restored to operational condition. Nice car, sure it will go quick,

    Beautiful Thunderbird. Funny how ford built them to originally combat the Corvette and yet they turned into a luxury cruiser not even close to what it was originally thought of being.

    My dad’s first car is a 59 tbird ragtop with 3 on tree. He has had my mother and that car for over 60years. We restored together in 2010. You’re absolutely right Nick. These cars were futuristic and just cool!

  • @mastergunnerysgt1258

    One more thought of the switch on the left side was for the the windshield washer and it hit me like a ton bricks, after I thought about it. For it is so cool to see this car of yester year.

    I had a 1958 t bird while stationed on Guam. I got it from someone being transferred. I had it from 1967 to 1969. When I was transferred. It is probably still on Guam.

  • @paulpotvin3822
    @paulpotvin3822 7 месяцев назад +3

    I think that sunroof might lock in both positions when the lever points left and right. I think it's unlocked when its pointing front to back.

  • @mastergunnerysgt1258
    @mastergunnerysgt1258 7 месяцев назад +2

    For the comment that Bryanstaten5585 said it is for the roof to open. For this old t-bird was special order and I have not seen many like this and I think they only were made for only for 2 years. Restore it and you will see that it will bring a hell of lot more money. Great car great price, need I say more, BUTI LOVE IT !!

    What a GORGEOUS CAR the body lines& that paint color, also the interior like a planes cockpit, wish i had the funds. My neighbor has a 59T bird thats a dark charcoal color that is absolutey beautiful, the only thing not to like about this car.
    Its not MINE.

    Finally you got my favorite T-bird, I curious if it's a 312 Thunderbird special engine, but I wish I had the funds to purchase it, it's has very little to make it perfect 🥰

    • @kennnethrohm4448
      @kennnethrohm4448 8 месяцев назад +3

      I have never ever seen a luggage rack above the windshield, but I checked and you could actually purchase it on the T-bird in 59 and 60, with the continental kit 😊

    • @randallscott4787
      @randallscott4787 3 месяца назад

      These Tbirds had the 352 cubic inch, big block FE engine as standard. A 430 cubic inch engine called the MEL, ( Mercury, Edsell, Lincoln) was also on offer as an option. Don't be confused with the two as these engines were quite different. Tbirds were built at Wixom, Michigan, which was the Mercury/Lincoln plant. Hope this helps out a bit.
