Welcome to the World of 1960

LOVEfords presents the Treasury of 1960 Ford

This is a multi-media CD that contains over 350 pages of articles, pictures, information, charts, an owner’s manual, and selling guides on the 1960 Fords: Fairlane, Fairlane 500, Galaxie, Starliner, Sunliner, Ranch Wagon, Country Sedan, Country Squire, Falcon, and Thunderbird. In addition there are 7 full-length Ford commercials (6 in color) and 3 one-minute radio commercials!  Look at what you get....


Star Search Now Underway!
Legendary Ford Magazine is looking for cars and trucks to be featured in future issues. LOVEfords wanted to know, specifically, what kinds of vehicles does that include?
LFM Publisher Colin Date replied: "Legendary Ford Magazine features Ford, Mercury, Edsel, and Lincoln vehicles from the '50s, '60s, and '70s; basically "stock"  - either unmolested originals or immaculately restored versions. Any modifications have to be period correct. We also feature a smaller 'customs" section, and showcase Ford and Mercury drag and race cars."

At present, LFM is looking for feature car/truck candidates within a reasonable distance from the Eugene, Oregon area. If you would like to have your car or truck considered for a photo shoot, please contact Legendary Ford Magazine. Owners in other locations are welcome to contact the magazine as well, however photo shoot dates have not yet been established for other areas.

LOVE ...at first sight!
Whether it was the Thunderbird styling or the Trigger-Torque Power, the 1955 Ford Fairlane Sunliner was in fact, love at first sight for thousands of lucky owners. Valentine's Day is a good time to think about the Ford you love best. In keeping with that, LOVEfords enthusiast Jim Defries has shared some moments from the 1950s and 1960s when a new, or almost-new Ford showed up at a wedding. Let's start our with Jim's cousin Lois' wedding day - she's a beautiful bride on her way to the church in 1958 in the back of that also-beautiful 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Town Victoria.
Below, Jim's mom beside her 1955 Fairlane Victoria. Both Mom and Vickie are decked out in elegant black-and-white style. The Ford was just 3 years old.
Fast forward 8 years: that awesome Raven Black 1966 Ford LTD 4-door hardtop that you see below is brand-new... it belonged to a family friend who worked at a Ford dealership. It will be taking Jim and his new bride home from the church very shortly. And yes, that's a nearly-new 1962 Galaxie 500/XL right behind it...did you spot the Thunderbird 406 badge?
Here's another look at that big, beautiful LTD...simply breathtaking with its vinyl roof and burgundy Limousine Luxury interior. Don't forget...this LTD was brand-new....it's OK to eat your heart out over that one!
Thank you, Jim, for these great pictures.

Take a look at the 1966 Ford that Jim bought brand-new...and still owns.


If you are a connoisseur of the Mercury line, a visit to Winged Messenger is a must! If you are not yet enjoying the style, flair, and downright superiority of a Mercury, LOVEfords recommends a visit to this site. Everybody should have at least one Mercury in their life!

Did you know that before it was shipped to a dealer, every 1966 Thunderbird first had a 12-mile factory road test? The people of New Hudson, Michigan did. Read about it word-for-word exactly as it was presented in Ford Times - the most popular periodical on the LOVEfords bookshelf.
