Above: The 1972 Thunderbird instrument panel was almost identical to the
Continental Mark IV. All controls and instruments were positioned for maximum
visibility. A row of warning lights runs across the very top, while headlight
switch, SelectAire controls, and rear defroster control are at left of
steering wheel. The smaller round dial in the middle is the fuel gauge,
and just above the fuel gauge is the seat belt reminder light. Below that
is the rectangular transmission selector. The large dial to the left is
the clock, to the right is the speedometer with odometer and trip odometer.
The wiper and cigarette lighter are to the right of the steering wheel,
with optional warning lights grouped above, and to the left of the air
outlet. The radio is below. Barely visible under the dash, to the right
of the steering wheel, is the power antenna control. The ash tray is to
its right. This car is also equipped with the optional Three Spoke Rim-Blow
Steering Wheel.
