For sale:

1978 Ford Thunderbird Diamond Jubilee Edition - 1 of only 271 – 400 (6.6L) V8 – Drivable – Rust-free! – Confirmed one Owner! - First Paint! - Low mileage – from Arizona – with Marti report

 

Odometer reading: 61,334 miles – seems to be the actual mileage but due to age and 5-digit odometer miles are exempt.

Color: Polar-white (Paint code 9D) with blue vinyl roof (Paint code Y2).

Paint: Regarding paint thickness measurement it is mostly the very first paint – therefor good to average condition with just a few normal signs of usage.

Body: No noteworthy dents/dings - the vinyl roof has some cracks only on the left rear side. The rest of the vinyl looks actually really nice.

Rust: RUST-FREE! – Just a few harmless surface rust spots (see pictures) – this is a desert vehicle from Arizona since new.

Interior: Leather Blue (trim code UB) – for the age good condition with only a few normal signs of usage – the front seats are very good.The rear seat bench has some cracks on top as well as the dashboard – all original and quite well-kept (see pictures).

Electrical components: All in working condition – A/C is not cold – Lights, blower, radio, seat adjustments, etc. all’s working. Lights open and close perfectly and stay closed.

Engine: Ford 400 cui V8 (6.6L) with carburetor – Starts right up, runs well – accelerates perfectly – with new fuel pump - no abnormal noises and no leaks!

Transmission: Automatic – shifts as it should.

Other mechanical: With brand-new battery - the car runs and drives. However it was sitting in storage for quite some time and it will need basic stuff done before being roadworthy like fluids changed, tune-up, brakes, etc. Especially the brakes are pretty soft and the rear tires are old and cracked but hold air. Again: The car runs well and can be driven carefully at low speed up and down the street but that's it.

Originality: Completely original incl. working Radio – this car is a one owner vehicle confirmed by the very first title and the matching name plate on the glove box.

Miscellaneous: Solid, rust-free and fully equipped T-Bird – only one owner with assumed low mileage – everything’s comprehensible and confirmed – this Thunderbird is a Limited Edition (“Diamond Jubilee”), that was built in 1978 to honor Ford's 75-year existence. Those cars were fully equipped and came only in a few certain colorways. Our T-Bird is a very rare example in polar-white with blue leather and the 400 engine, which was only built 271 times that way. A Marti report comes along that confirms those facts.
