1979 was the last year of the Seventh Generation, introduced for the 1977 model year.

While it’s not a classic I would go out of my way to own, the small details – like the cloth bucket seats – make this one a standout, which is important when dealing in a car they made a lot of and with plenty still for sale.The Ford Thunderbird was built from 1955 through 1997 and from 2002 to 2005 over eleven distinct generations. The Thunderbird looks quite clean from end-to-end, and is said to run well. That included a silver base coat with clear and a black vinyl roof. The seller notes the Thunderbird received a full paint job at some point in the past.

While not that powerful, the 302 will provide plenty of cheap, reliable miles while also making a nice noise if you choose to tweak the exhaust and give this luxo-barge some pipes. Under hood, the Thunderbird is packing a 302 V8 Windsor engine with just 74,000 miles. The woodgrain inserts even carry over to the steering wheel. Woodgrain insets in the dash look practically new, and the matching gray carpets show no signs of excessive stains or dirt. The interior really is a treat, not only for the unusual seating arrangement (for a T-Bird) but also because the pattern is quite unique and in excellent condition. The Buy-It-Now is $5,999 with the option of submitting an offer. A Thunderbird of practically any vintage is associated with bench seats and column shifters, but this one here on eBay has a proper floor shift with a full center console and the aforementioned buckets in excellent condition. This 1979 Ford Thunderbird is a nicely preserved driver-quality example, with a clean interior featuring the less-often-seen option of front bucket seats.
