Former owner John Whalen says: This is my 2nd '60 T-Bird. My first was only 7 years old, and was the first car I bought after being discharged from the USMC in '67. That one was brown, in nice shape, but I didn't have an appreciation for it at the time. The one I just bought last October looks like it has been a "project " car a couple of times, but is sound in body. The mechanics needed some work, and most of the seals were dried out, so I believe it sat for quite a while, although that wasn't the story. But the car and I seem to have "bonded" (no, bondED, not bondOED!) and I'm still doing odds and ends to make it a solid driver in excellent, running, but not show, condition. When I bought mine, my brother, who was 10 years old when I bought my first one, but remembered it very well, caught the bug and recently bought a custom '60 2 door hardtop converted to a roadster, and is working on it to make it, like mine, a head turning well running driver. - - - - - UPDATE March 2016, Joseph Dudek owns this Thunderbird.
