For Sale: 1979 Ford Thunderbird in Kentwood, Michigan

Vehicle Description

GR Auto Gallery is excited to present this 1979 Ford Thunderbird Heritage for your consideration. Finished in rich Maroon with a matching maroon cloth interior, this personal luxury coupe is a true symbol of late-'70s American style. The long hood, sharp body lines, hidden headlights, and opera windows give this T-Bird a commanding presence, while the Heritage trim adds upscale flair with unique badging and luxurious interior appointments.

Under the hood, the car is powered by a 351ci V8 mated to an automatic transmission, offering a smooth and confident driving experience. This Thunderbird has seen thoughtful maintenance over the years, with recent mechanical work including a rebuilt carburetor, a new master cylinder, new shocks, spark plugs, a new fuel gauge and sending unit, and a new A/C condenser and compressor to ensure reliable cooling on warm days. The engine runs strong, and the ride is comfortable-exactly what you'd expect from a classic grand touring coupe.

Inside, the plush maroon cloth interior is a time capsule of 1970s luxury, with bench seating, faux wood trim, and a relaxed, spacious cabin. The car features LED tail lights for improved visibility and a subtle touch of modern functionality. Originally used as a dealer demonstrator, this Thunderbird spent its early years sitting new in Wisconsin before being acquired by its most recent owner, who has cared for it over the past five years.

The 1979 model marked the final year of this Thunderbird generation, making this Heritage edition a well-preserved piece of Ford's personal luxury history. With a blend of vintage charm and recent mechanical updates, it's ready to cruise or show with pride.
