The second generation Ford Thunderbird (also called Square Bird)
was produced by Ford for the 1958 to 1960 model years as a
successor to the popular 1955-1957 two-seater. In response to
Ford-conducted surveys two major changes were made to attract
potential buyers: two rear seats were added and the level of luxury
and features of a full-sized car were incorporated into a mid-size
platform.
As a result, sales soared and the new model dramatically expanded
the personal luxury car market, winning the Motor Trend Car of the
Year in 1958. Sales totalled 198,191 over three model years,
approximately four times that of the earlier two seat model.
Along with the 1958 Lincolns, the 1958 Thunderbird was the first
Ford Motor Company vehicle designed with unibody construction.
1960
With more trim changes, most notably the addition of a third tail
light in the rear clusters, 1960's sales figures hit another
record: 92,843 units sold, including 11,860 convertibles. A rare
option in this year was a sunroof; this "Golde Edition" (Golde was
a German company whose sunroof patent Ford licensed) sold 2,530
examples.
