America's Personal Luxury car As it was affectionately dubbed as it
gained prominance in the Golden Years of America Oppulance.
Americans in general wanted to flaunt their success in front of the
world and celebrate it with the automobiles we have come to love
over the years. The Thunderbird did exactly that for most of us.

WORK! Tilt-A-Way Stering Wheel There are a couple small tears on
the driver's seat cover, otherwise this is one of the nicest
interiors we've seen in a long time on a seemingly survivor car. We
included pictures of areas where there is small bubbling on the
surface. Overall this car is very nice and shows extremely well.
The Chrome and Stainless appear to be original and show normal wear
and fading. Just a Very Very Cool Car and the Color is Absolutrely
Beautiful! For 1966, the 390-cubic-inch V8's power was increased to
315 hp. All models featured a new front clip. A flatter hood,
re-shaped front fenders, new headlight buckets, new egg crate
grille with large Thunderbird emblem, new bumper guards, a single
bumper bar, and painted roll pan replaced the previous two model
year's two-piece front bumper. The rear taillights were revised,
now a 3 piece unit going the full width across the rear, the backup
light now located in the center section replaced the formerly rear
roll pan mounted lamps. A new Town Hardtop model was offered,
featured a roof with blind quarter panels for a more 'formal' look
(at the cost of rear visibility). The Landau was replaced by the
blind quarter formal roofed Town Landau, which retained the
previous model's padded roof and landau S-bars. It became by far
the best-selling model, accounting for 35,105 units of the 1966
model year's 69,176 units sold. The transmission used on early
build 390 V8 equipped T-Birds was the Cruise-O-Matic MX, however
late build 390 and all 428 V8 equipped T-Birds had the new C6 3
speed automatic installed We Sell and Ship Worldwide This Baby is
