1969
(It's next to impossible to find a photo of a '69 Thunderbird that isn't A. A four-door, B. A "Town Landau" with the super-sized blind spot, or C. Besmirched by the addition of the cheapest, tackiest, aftermarket wheels the owner could find down at Klem's Kustom Kar Audio & Rims. This was the very best of a bad lot.)
For 1969 I like the 4 door a little better. On the coupes, the long doors make it hard to get out of in tight parking lots. After they pass 1966, the only coupe I liked better was the late 80's turbo.
IMHO clueless, "Fog of War" Bob McNamera killed the Thunderbird in 1958. From that point on it was just a meaningless nameplate.
