Second Generation (Square Bird) Ford Thunderbird for sale.

Ford added a back seat and invented the personal-luxury car. The Square Bird outsold the two-seater four to one and moved the Thunderbird from niche to mainstream. The standard engine was the 352 FE V8, with a 430 MEL V8 available from 1959. This is a unibody car, the first Thunderbird built that way, which matters when you inspect for rust.
