Over the years the Ford Thunderbird has earned its place in U.S. history as an icon of automotive technology. When the Thunderbird was introduced in 1955 it was intended to compete with the Chevrolet Corvette. It was a two-seat car with clean styling, creature comforts, and V8 refinements.
T-bird’s mission began to change in 1964 with a complete redesign, sharper lines, a more stodgy profile, and an increased emphasis on luxury. 1966 saw more cosmetic changes such as a new grille, a single tail-light that ran the width of the back of the car, and new body sculpting.
Thunderbirds were much larger, and some fans of the classic strong>Thunderbird consider 1966 to be the last year of interest.
