Doubledate The Las Vegas Strip In Classic Rental Car

You have been in love for a long time with the all-American classic Ford Thunderbird. You may have been dreaming about cruising on the strip of Las Vegas with your girlfriend in your arms. You have done your homework, put the pictures on the wall, saved enough money, and planned for the trip. But sometimes reality does not go along with us, it is either we need to spend a lot more money than what you have or that your best friend and his girl also want to go cruising with you and you just can't say no. What a bummer, right?

Wrong.

Car rentals in Las Vegas abound that offer sports and classic car models for you to take on the road. And of course if you want a Thunderbird that seats four people (you and your girl with your bestfriend and his), then you have got to go rent the 1960 Ford Thunderbird.

The 1960 Ford Thunderbird was part of the second generation automobiles introduced first in 1958 as a four-seater car. This four-seat Thunderbird was designed with unibody construction abandoning a separate chassis. The purpose was to allow the maximum interior space in a small exterior package.

The new Thunderbird got the Motortrend's Car of the Year Award for its debut season. Though many fans of the earlier two-seat Thunderbird were not that glad about its new direction, sales doubled more than the previous year. This, despite losing three months to production and 1958 being a very low year for car sales.

The 1960 Thunderbird had no mechanical changes, having only a few styling differences by adding the vertical hash-marks added to rear fenders, six taillights instead of four, a square-mesh grille with full-width horizontal bars, and a "Thunderbird" script on the door projectile.

On its emblems and ornaments, there were changes but still minor. Added were a standard rectangular outside mirror, door handles that blended more closely with the upper belt molding and door trims that were changed to incorporate a built-in armrest. The 1960 model also used stainless-steel components and there were even two cars that were made entirely of stainless steel by one of Ford's suppliers, Allegheny-Ludlum Steel Corporation.

The 1960 Ford Thunderbird, in all its muscle and American stylings, can be taken for a cruise down the Vegas dirt road or even for just a night out on the strip. The four-seater that it is, you can either enjoy a duo or with the company of friends.

So if you find your best friend and his girl jumping in on your trip, thus potentially ruining your plan, don't despair just now. You can still ride one of the great all-American classic cars with your girl and of course your best friend and his girl. Las Vegas car rentals are here to save your day. With a classic car as your ride, double dates are a piece of cake.
