This is a 1976 Thunderbird Commemorative Edition. It is one of 32 special-edition Thunderbirds that were ordered by Ford's Cincinnati District Sales Office. The purpose was to celebrate the passing of the "Big Bird", which was due to be replaced by a smaller, less grand Thunderbird for 1977. None were sold outside the Cincinnati, Ohio and Charleston, West Virginia areas. This Thunderbird was last titled in Ohio on June 11, 1991 with recorded miles of 62,671.<p> Like all other 31 produced, this Thunderbird is Black with a silver half vinyl roof and a black leather interior. All Commemorative Edition Thunderbirds have gray glass moon roof and a trunk-mounted pseudo-spare wheel carrier, Convenience Group, Front Cornering Lamps, Steel Belted Radial Tires, Tilt Steering Wheel, Power Seat, AM-FM Stereo Radio, Protection Group, Wire Wheel Covers, and Tinted Glass. American Sunroof Company of Wixom, Michigan added the non-standard moon roof and "European Rear Deck" lid. <p>Out of the 32 Commemorative Editions built and ordered by the Cincinnati DSO, 29 were sold in Ohio and 3 were sold in West Viriginia. All VINs have the prefix "6Y87A" and have consecutive unit number ranges of 132367 to 132377, 132729-132743, and 132807-132812. As of March, 2003 the only Commemorative Edition accounted for is Registry Number 56 (6Y87A132371) that belongs to Mark McRoberts.
