You don't see many 1960 Fords these days. This model was never sold in Australia, but over the years, a few have found their way here. When released, it has been stated that they were a fraction wider than some States allowed, which meant that they couldn't be sold in some States until this problem was sorted out. Style wise, they were one year ahead of Chevrolet by eliminating the "dog-leg" windscreen pillar. This model also saw Ford do away with the round taillights, but they would revert back to round taillights again in 1961. This survivor 1960 Ford Galaxie Sedan was for sale at Del Mar this year. It is a pity that more of this model are not seen, as they are quite a nice looking car, although many will disagree with me?
