an automatic transmission that shifts smoothly and is strong in
each gear. According to our vehicle intake inspection; all of the
exterior lights function as they should, the hood and trunk latches
are solid, the air conditioning blows ice cold and the heater blows

The Ford Thunderbird is a rear wheel drive automobile which was
manufactured by Ford in the United States over eleven model
generations from 1955 through 2005. The Thunderbird created a
market niche that eventually became known as the personal luxury
car. In 1978, Ford offered the "Diamond Jubilee Edition"
Thunderbird to commemorate the company's 75th year as an auto
manufacturer. This option package escalated the price of the car to
almost US$12,000, virtually doubling the standard price. Naturally,
it included every option available except for a moonroof and an
engine block heater. A similar option package, called "Heritage",
was available for 1979. Though this generation was the most
successful in sales with over 955,000 examples produced in its
three-year run, Ford sought to downsize the Thunderbird further out
of fuel efficiency and emissions concerns, leading to a redesign
for 1980.
