Are you looking for that unmolested, ltra low 43000 mile survivor 1979 Ford Thunderbird Hardtop? This is it... This Thunderbird has had one local owner since new and used sparingly throughout it's 35+ year old life. It was born on April of 1979 and spent most of it's life garaged.

Condition Report:

This vehicle has been incredibly well maintained and appears to be all or nearly all original. The paint appears to be all or mostly original aside from probably a few small touch ups. The paint is shiny but could stand to be buffed due to age. All accessories we tested work including the A/C but it could stand to be recharged from age.

There are a few small stone chips and very few spots of surface corrosion in the wheel lips. They do not detract from the overall condition and are hard to see from 5 feet away. Please review the photos for a better gauge of overall physical condition.

The interior is as close to immaculate as you will find. NOS Ford mats would be perfect to top it off and they do show up on eBay from time to time. The glass is perfect, he spare doesn't look like it has been down, nd even the trunk mat is beautiful.

The engine is a 302 CI V8 with an automatic. It runs and drives well, ut the brakes and other mechanicals should be checked over, gain from age. The tires are Firestone 721 and are old. They should be replaced before the car is driven any distance.

The headlights work as they should and all or nearly all of the exterior lights and interior courtesy lights work. The gauges work as well. The transmission shifts as it should, nd the brakes work. We would suggest minimally a front end check, hocks, adiator flush and fill, s well as fuel filter, park plugs, une up, tc before use just from age and storage.

To summarize, t is our opinion that this low mile phenomenal survivor would be a very nice addition to anyone's collection. It would make a great project for the Ford or Thunderbird enthusiast, ord car dealership or a museum.
