Thunderbird Manuals
The Thunderbird is Ford’s personal luxury car. The library holds Thunderbird material from 1955 to 1973: shop manuals, a carburetor service manual and supplement, a parts catalog, accessory wiring diagrams and Ford of Canada service bulletins. They cover the first-generation 1955–1957 cars, the 1958 unitized-body model and the 1967–1968 cars, with 352, 390, 428 and 429 V-8 engines.
Manuals here include the 1958 Ford Thunderbird Shop Manual and the 1967–1968 Thunderbird Shop Manual with its 1968 supplement. The Holley Model 4000 four-barrel carburetor service manual for 1955, with its 1956 supplement, helps with the original fuel system. The 1973 Ford Cars Master Parts and Accessories Illustration Catalog includes the Thunderbird. Restorers, owners and mechanics will find these useful.
