2005- What makes it a 50th Anniversary Edition

[PLE999]

Besides the fender badges, what else makes this a "50th Anniversary Edition"? Were all the 2005's a 50th Anniversary Edition?

I'm not sure. Mine has blonde(?) leather seats and a blonde convertible top. What seems to be special wheels. After that, I don't think there's much else

All 2005 models are 50th anniversary. 1500 were made as a Special Edition with a one off color interior/exterior. It will have a small plaque in the glove compartment showing the number sequence.

I recently read up on these. All of the 2005 thirds were 50th anniversary edition. HOWEVER, within the 50th anniversary edition was a limited - or ‘special edition’ - the cashmere had a special plate - label inside and a unique colors scheme. I have seen some posts that say that only cashmere was the 50th anniversary edition, that is not correct. I found it interesting that they made more of the cashmere ’special edition‘ than all or almost all of the other color combinations- 1500 cashmere were made. There were only 985 of my bronze. I’m happy. Hope we are are.

There were 1396 Bronze manufactured in 2005. I own a Bronze Bird and get many compliments when I drive it.

Ours is Evening Black. The guy who details it says it is the "blackest car" he's ever seen.

Hi - I should have qualified my response. I had looked up by color interior and top. I have 2005 premium bronze with sand interior and top. I too love my bird. My resource shows their were 985 of this specific combination. Happy driving.

I'm impressed with the paint job!

I have a 2005 50th Anniversary Ford Thunderbird Convertible with hardtop. But mine doesn't have a plaque in the glove box. What does that mean?

The most viaable in a chrome 50th Anniverary with 1955 - 2005 just below it. Someone else will probably send you a picture
