Oh, I don't know, Sir. Methinks, Ford did a nice job interpreting Thunderbird tradition, with their recent models: http://downloads.xdesktopwallpapers...ck Pose Of 2003 Ford Thunderbird In Black.jpg
Yes, that is the factory bucket/console interior, with custom made seat covers over the white vinyl on the seats. Very nice. Too bad about the standard gauge package, instead of the full gauges. Also, because it is a floor shift car, there is not tilt wheel. You could have one or the other, but not both. Sure is sweet for a 77. That was the only year of the 3 that did not have the chrome outline around the head lamp doors.
