1960 Ford Sunliner Convertible
VIN: OR55X122730
– 352ci V-8
– Automatic Transmission
-New Top and Interior
Presented at auction is a vintage 1960 Ford Sunliner Convertible. This is the only production year by Ford to relinquish the normal round tail lights in favor of the “moon shape” style in that era. As a result, these models are becoming increasingly scarce. This same production year elicited the longest and widest models ever produced by Ford.
Under single ownership by an avid Ford collector for numerous years, this car has always been garaged out of the wind, sun and weather. A new top with a new pump, cylinders, and hydraulic lines was in stalled in 2018. The top has no stains, blemishes, scratches and/or fading. It is like it was installed yesterday! The interior upholstery was also gutted at the same time and professionally replaced with a matching red/white décor and matching carpet. The trunk interior was also professional replaced.
In 2016, the mufflers and pipes from the engine down were replaced and are like new. The dry Utah climate has kept the exhaust system free from rust blemishes. Shocks on all four corners were replaced along with the exhaust, and a new windshield was installed in 2017.
The transmission was overhauled in November, 2018. The original 352ci V-8 engine was overhauled prior to current owner acquisition, with the only work required during ownership was a fuel pump replacement.
