VINYL ROOF

Above: 1979 Thunderbird with optional 2-piece vinyl roof in Dark Red (roof code Y8)

Vinyl roof codes for the 1979 Thunderbird consist of two digits. The first digit is a letter identifying the type of vinyl roof. All 1979 Thunderbirds except where noted below use "Y" as the first digit, which designates a Valino Grain vinyl material, ½ vinyl roof style.

The Thunderbird vinyl roof was an option that could be ordered to match the body paint color, as shown below, or contrast for a more dramatic effect: Comprised of two pieces, a body-colored band stretched from side to side separating the front section from the rear.

Special thanks to Michael Imaoka for his assistance in researching and documenting the incredible assortment of interior trim codes and options for this series of Thunderbirds.
