The third generation Thunderbird is the successor to the 1950's 'Square-bird.' The chassis remained very similar to prior models, but was reworked slightly for a smoother ride and better handling. An all-new body-shell featured a severely pointed front 'prow,' modest fins above huge renditions of Ford's round tail-lights, and softer roof contours on the hardtops. For its time, the car offered exceptional soundproofing and overall quality. Ford's burly 390 V-8 was the only engine offered for 1961, but a higher output 'M' engine was offered for 1962-1963.Source - SDAM
