All,

I used to own a '77 TBird that had a really souped up factory package, but I can't remember the name of the package and would like to find out what it was.

The car had the velour seats, power everthing, acrylic hood ornament, royal or sapphire blue paint job, gold designed wheels and gold pinstriping, moon roof, opera windows.

Does anyone know that name of this special edition of the TBird.

Thanks!
 
Well, there were three different options in the '77-'79 model years. If I remember correctly, there were only 2 for the '77 model year, though. The 2 for '77 were the Diamond Jubilee and the Town Landau. The other one, which debuted in '79 was the Heritage Edition. So if yours was a '77, I would imagine it was a Diamond Jubilee, thus the blue paint job. However, if you're looking for a Town Landau, I've got one for sale for $1000. It needs a few things, but I've got most of the things it needs. Let me know if you're interested. :)
