1978 Ford Thunderbird Diecast Car

The Motor Max 1978 Ford Thunderbird American Graffiti is My Diecast Car of the Day™.

Don't know why this is in the Motor Max American Graffiti collection since that movie took place in the early 1960s. But who cares. This is a sweet 1:64 scale diecast car. It looks good.


That expansive front end with the big grille and massive metal bumpers (remember them?) is perfectly captured in this tiny model. The painted roof on this diecast successfully recreates the bizarre vinyl roof treatment that even Rolls Royce didn't offer: the vinyl top is in two pieces, separated by a thick band of the car's sheet metal.


The real 1978 Thunderbird - actually the 1977 through1979 - was Ford Motor's most successful model with sales of over 300,000 cars. And why not? It's a huge, plush, and powerful personal luxury coupe. It shared its platform with the recently deceased Ford Torino.


Motor Max did a fantastic job by cramming so much detail and accuracy into such a small package. This diecast successfully captures the essence of high class 1970s style.

Reminds me, anyone catch "Kotter" last night?
