Vehicle Description
This 1960 Ford Courier is located in Bradenton, FL 34211 and
offered by a classic car dealer. Ford Courier is a model nameplate
used by Ford since the early 1950s and first used in North America
for a passenger style wagon or a sedan delivery body style of the
full-size Ford line sharing its body with the two-door Ford station
wagon. Marketed exclusively as a two-door vehicle, the Courier was
initially designed with a side-hinged rear cargo access door
(unique to the model line). For 1957 and 1958, the Courier adopted
the two-piece "clamshell" rear door of the Ford Parklane and Ford
Del Rio station wagons. We have an ultra-rare 2-door 1960 Ford
Courier here that has V8 power, a custom red interior, with mag
wheels. -Mechanical You could get anything from a mild straight-six
cylinder engine to a 352 cubic inch V-8 as all were available in
the 1960 Courier wagon line. Now ours has a small block Ford V8
engine that has been modified and has an aluminum intake,
performance carb, air conditioning, Edelbrock chrome valve covers,
chrome open element air cleaner, H.D cast iron exhaust manifolds,
dual exhaust, power brakes and steering, aluminum radiator, and
modified electronics. It sits in a very clean, painted, detailed,
and correct engine compartment and the engine is connected to an
automatic transmission while riding on chrome 5-spoke mag wheels
and black sidewall performance tires. -Interior The new red
interior consists of a full-size split front bench seat, great red
factory dash with its bright chrome and stainless trimmed factory
gauge clusters and controls, auxiliary performance gauges,
aftermarket tachometer, newer stereo radio, air conditioning, red
seatbelts, red carpet, and black/red floor mats. It has a red and
polished three-spoke steering wheel on the chrome tilt column, red
padded headliner and door panels, and the fully carpeted and fitted
rear cargo area. The rear compartment has roughly 97 cubic feet of
luggage area with the luggage platform that was nearly 101/2 feet
long with the tailgate down. Exterior 1960 was a pivotal year as
this Ford station wagon was fully redesigned and restyled. Ours has
had the restoration as we said earlier and is now covered in satin
black finish on the stock body with the addition of the FX style
hood. All the chrome is shiny as well as great trim, chrome
bumpers, glass, and body seams and panel fit. Conclusion These big
wagons were long deemed the "least cool" cars on the road back then
because they were what most families used to tote the kids around
in, but now the full-sized American station wagons are turning into
today's hot collectibles. Any enthusiasts looking to collect the
fondly remembered automobiles from their youth are turning to
stylish, useful classics like this ultra-rare 2-door 1960 Ford
Courier. ***************DISCLAIMER: PLEASE READ
