The second generation FORD THUNDERBIRD also known as the Square Bird was produced by FORD for the 1958 to 1960 model years as the successor to the popular 1955-1957 two-seater. Two major changes were made to attract potential buyers, two rear seats were added and the level of luxury and features of a full-size car were integrated into a mid-size 2-door coupe platform.
As a result, it won the MOTOR TREND Car of the Year award in 1958.
Along with the 1958 Lincolns, the 1958 Thunderbird was the first FORD MOTOR COMPANY vehicle designed with a unibody chassis. The new Thunderbird had a distinct new style.
The design was entirely driven by the styling department, the design was one of two proposals, designed primarily by Joe OROS, who later worked on the 1964 FORD MUSTANG.
The losing proposal, designed by Elwood Engel, would earn its own place in FORD MOTOR COMPANY history after minor revisions, it would become the 1961 Lincoln Continental.
