I just recently inherited a 1960 Golde Top. 352 White with a 3 speed transmission. No Overdrive. Wondering How Rare This Is and If I should Restore it. No Power windows or Locks. No AC. Power Steering and Brakes. Turquoise Leather. I have been looking all over and haven't come across one. Any info would be great. Thanks

RE: Need Help
Welcome to the site.
Your car is very rare. Only about one percent of the production came with the standard transmission. Ninety-eight percent of the cars had the optional extra-cost automatic and about one percent had the optional extra-cost manual with overdrive.
Only about 2500 sunroof equipped (Golde Top) Thunderbirds were produced in 1960 out of about 90,000 Hardtops.
Your car is worth restoring.

RE: Need Help
Mark as per Alexanders reply your goldetop is very rare and SHOULD be restored. If anything, they are one of sought out squarebirds by collectors.See the section in this site and text to the owners. Welcome to the club.
