The Thunderbird has assumed many personalities since its inception in 1955.
From its early days as a sporty two seater, it grew into a luxury car for
four passengers, then into a family sedan, then even larger as the taste
for large luxury cars grew. As gas prices rose, the Thunderbird became
smaller, until it finally came full circle back to its roots as a two seater.
The Thunderbird is an American symbol of status and luxury. This book explains
the transformations that have taken place during this time.

Automotive Mileposts Review:
At long last there are books being published that don't give the impression
that Ford quit making the Thunderbird after 1966! In fact, the period of
1967-1979 was one of the most popular for the Thunderbird. We've always
felt that publications that ended with the 1966 model year were leaving
out the most interesting and challenging period of time for the marque.
This was the car that started the whole personal luxury car trend, one
of the most lucrative ever for auto makers, and many of the most interesting
and unique Thunderbirds to ever be built were built during the post 1966
model year. This includes the Four Door Landau, built from 1967 to 1971,
without question one of the most unique cars ever manufactured by Ford
Motor Company.
Thunderbird Fifty Years is beautifully photographed, and includes excellent examples of original,
restored, and modified Thunderbirds. In its pages one can see the changes
America's first personal luxury car took to fit the needs of consumers,
and to meet the challenges presented by new competition entering the market.
The story of how the Thunderbird debuted as a sporty two passenger convertible,
then grew to accommodate two additional passengers by adding a rear seat,
then became America's glamour queen by adding new models and special editions,
four doors, and a host of gadgets and features that set it apart from all
other cars is captured by this book. A must have for all Thunderbird enthusiasts.

Everything you need to decipher all the codes! Broken down by year, each
chapter identifies the code numbers for engine, transmission, axle, body
type, exterior paint codes, interior trim codes, and patent plates. Includes
a list of Regular Production Options (RPOs), exterior paint color charts,
and interior trim color charts. A great resource if you want to verify
the authenticity of a vehicle, or if you just want to know what all those
numbers mean!

Beautiful photography covers 1955-1997, including photos of the very last
Thunderbird built in 1997. This book covers some of the models and years
that have been overlooked for too long. A red 1963 Sports Roadster with
a factory tachometer, the one millionth Thunderbird (a 1972 model), a 1975
sporting the 20th Anniversary Copper Luxury Group, and a 1978 Diamond Jubilee
Edition are all beautifully represented.
