Ford followed up the Squarebird's three-year stint with the
restyled �Roundbird� from 1961 to 1963. Technical highlights
included an even bigger engine as Dearborn's FE V-8 was enlarged to
390 cubic inches in '61. New for 1962 was the optional �M-code�
390, a 340-horsepower V-8 crowned with three Holley two-barrel
carburetors. M-code T-birds were rare: only 145 were sold in 1962,
a mere 55 in 1963. A Thunderbird convertible paced the Indianapolis
500 in 1961 and two new models debuted the following year. The
first, a Landau hardtop, incorporated a standard vinyl roof and
simulated walnut interior appointments. The second, the more famous
Sports Roadster, helped ease purists' pains by covering the
backseat with a streamlined tonneau cover. Dazzling Kelsey-Hayes
wire wheels also were included in the deal. T-birds were priced at
a hefty $5,439 in 1962, and $5,563 in 1963. Sports Roadster
production was 1,427 in 1962, 455 in 1963.
Hagerty Valuation $27,500-$54,000
