Bold, luxurious, and unmistakably 1970s. GR Auto Gallery is excited
to present this 1978 Ford Thunderbird Diamond Jubilee Edition which
is a special-edition personal luxury coupe that embodies the spirit
of its era. Finished in its exclusive Diamond Blue Metallic with a
matching blue cloth interior, this Thunderbird was built to
celebrate Ford's 75th anniversary, and it shows in every
detail.
Under the hood, a 6.6L V8 pairs with a smooth 3-speed automatic
transmission and rear-wheel drive, delivering the kind of
effortless cruising experience that made these cars legendary. With
power steering and power brakes, it offers confident, easy handling
despite its impressive size, ideal for relaxed driving around town
or long stretches of highway.
Inside, the Diamond Jubilee Edition is all about luxury. The cabin
features power windows, power locks, and a power driver seat, along
with thoughtful details like an analog clock, full set of gauges,
and cruise control for effortless highway travel. Entertainment
comes courtesy of an AM/FM radio with cassette slot, while an
escort radar warning receiver adds a fascinating period touch.
Climate comfort is covered with A/C and heat, ensuring year-round
drivability.
Rolling on its 15-inch original wheels wrapped in Hankook Optimo
H724 tires, the Thunderbird carries a stately look befitting its
top-tier status. Its long hood, formal roofline, and distinctive
trim remind you that this wasn't just any Thunderbird, it was
Ford's way of making a statement in luxury, style, and
exclusivity.
With 82,163 miles and in excellent condition, this Diamond Jubilee
Edition remains a rare find for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
It's a slice of 1970s Americana; big, bold, and built to turn
heads.
If you're looking for a distinctive classic with presence, comfort,
and a touch of history, this 1978 Thunderbird Diamond Jubilee is
ready to impress.
