Facts and Figures:

The Overhead Control Panel was standard on this body style. Due to the lack of rear passenger windows, Power Vent Windows were included on all Town Hardtops equipped with optional Power Side Windows.

1969 and 1971 Thunderbird 2-door Landau models had the same roof style (lack of rear passenger windows) as the above model, however they are not referred to as a "Town Landau", rather, simply a "2-door Landau".

1966 was the first time the model name "Town Landau" was used. It was also used in the years 1977-1982 for Thunderbirds with distinguishing trim and luxury features. The Vintage Burgundy Town Landau shown above has optional Deluxe Wheel Covers.
