Is there any significance to combinations of the numbers 1,2,6, and 9?

only 9,261 had all-leather steering wheels
2,961 Thunderbirds were built for Canada.

....I think these random and useless facts are significant from a historical standpoint....Harry supplies this information for free.....Keepers of historical information on other marques don't.....you could generate a nice revenue stream, Harry.

Just the 55 Bond 007 models that went to Canada. None of the 2002 Neiman Marcus models were ordered for the Canadian market.

Of the 68,098 2002-2005 Thunderbirds made, only 9,261 had all-leather steering wheels.

What is the break down on color? Does this number include the 700 007's?

The all-leather wrapped steering wheels were all black/charcoal weren't they?

Or are you asking about the color of the wood wheels?

Re: Random useless facts about 2002-2005 Thunderbirds

The saddle interior had an all leather steering wheel (saddle accent is leather)

The 05 Full Red and Partial Steel Blue had colored leather accents on the steering wheel.

The Sand package has a sand colored all leather steering wheel.

007 has all black ink leather steering wheel.

Standard interiors in both black colors had all leather steering wheels.
