This was my first Danbury Mint purchase and one of my favorites with so many working features.

Thanks for posting this Tony!

I missed out on this T-Bird. Anyone know what the handle on the transmission tunnel just behind the console is for ?

There is a clip on the tonneau cover that attaches to this.

Only the Sports Roadsters have this.
