The private world of Thunderbird for 1976 was elevated to new
heights by advertising that took the previous year's ad slogan,
Could it be the best luxury car buy in America? and expanded it to
include the entire world for 1976! It might seem a bit farfetched
at first, but let's look a bit deeper at it.The Thunderbird has
never been as big as it was in 1976. And '76 was a good year to buy
one, as they were great cars. Very few problems presented
themselves to owners, as almost five years of production had
eliminated most concerns, and the assembly workers had built so
many of them that they could almost do it in the dark.In a fitting
tribute to the final big Bird, Ford introduced several new Luxury
Groups. One of which was the Bordeaux Luxury Group, which was
pretty much like the Burgundy Luxury Group from 1974. Rich looking
Bordeaux Starfire paint was complimented by a matching Dark Red or
Silver half-vinyl roof. Dual body side and hood paint stripes were
in gold or silver, depending on vinyl roof color. Dark Red wide
vinyl body side moldings protected the sides, and Simulated Wire
Wheel Covers flashed in the light as the Bird flew by. Inside,
Media Velour upholstery in Red, or Red leather seating surfaces
pampered the lucky passengers. Red luggage compartment dress up
trim reminded everyone that this was not a standard Thunderbird!The
1976 Thunderbird was the biggest and most luxurious Thunderbird
ever. This particular example is an absolutely stunning luxury
edition that has survived in outstanding condition. The paint and
chrome look amazing and the car still runs and drives phenomenally.
