1959 Ford Thunderbird

What is your favourite car of all time?

Radical updates to the basic '58 styling were considered for the '59, but none materialised. With a revised tooling budget of just $700,000 for all 1959-1960 modifications, the Squarebird received only minor visual changes. For '59, a horizontal-bar grille replaced the previous year's honeycomb design with the theme being repeated for the taillight surrounds, and chrome spearheads leading Thunderbird script replaced grilles on the bodyside "bombs". Most noteworthy styling changes for 1960 were a new honeycomb grille overlaid with three vertical bars, and triple taillight cluster replacing dual lights.
