![]() He explained his connection to the T-bird: “It’s mine forever now, it’s never leaving the family, it has to stay in the family”.ĭedication to an old ride is a trademark of the old car hobby, but Kevin takes it to another level with his 1960 Thunderbird and he admitted: “ This car is so much fun I don’t need a girlfriend”. These second generation Thunderbirds are on an ascending curve in value but this one is definitely not for sale because Kevin has embraced this old classic in a big way. The steering wheel is different, I can’t believe how many times you have to crank it in a parking lot”. Squarebirds definitely reflect the technology of the period but Kevin is realistic about his car’s habits on the road: “It’s kind of a big, floaty boat compared to my Dakota, this thing’s a kitty cat down the road but it’s pretty low-I couldn’t get into a parking lot with it at one place. It doesn’t take much to start it every year.The sound is pretty good with external speakers”. ![]() Kevin had to address a few issues with his 55-year-old Ford as he explained: “I ended up cleaning the engine bay because it hadn’t been cleaned since 1960 and there are a few other things like AC because it doesn’t work but it’s going to all get done.

Kevin explained the rest of the story: “Then it kind of fell into my hands. They used to drive it around to car shows”. My Mom got it for her birthday because she saw one in the movie Grease and really liked it. This Thunderbird is a pristine example of a survivor car: “This is a 23,000 original mile car and it’s 100 per cent original paint. Kevin credits his dedication to a basic fact as he explained: “This is a 1960 Thunderbird and that’s the same year my mother was born”.
