1979 Ford Thunderbird 49507 Miles Ford Bright Red Coupe 302cid V8 Automatic

The Ford Thunderbird was a large, luxurious halo car that brought style and features to the Ford range. Traditionally a two door personal coupe, the Thunderbird was originally designed as a response to the Chevrolet Corvette but soon morphed into a cushy personal luxury car. The car went through numerous changes but still range true to the Thunderbird ethos. The 7th generation T-bird was sold from just 1977 till 1979. It was based on the Ford LTD and was a... bit smaller and more efficient than its predecessor. Sales were strong and the car sold nearly a million units in three years. The squarer, sharper styling was a hit and cars flew off the lot. GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this nice 1979 Thunderbird for your consideration. Last year of the 7th generation, this car features Ford Bright Red paint that is in great shape. The body is very clean and the paint shows well. Chrome is nice with just a little bit of pitting. The exterior features a white vinyl roof with unique handle bar top, engraved rear windows, hood ornament, hid away headlights, hubcaps and white wall tires. The interior is very nice and comfortable and features red cloth front bucket seats. The dash is solid and crack free and has nice wood trim. The car also features the original radio and heater controls. the standard 302cid Windsor V8 paired to an automatic transmission.
