Ford emblem on deck lid

Post by Alan H. Tast »

Trivia question I'm seeking an answer for: what was the first year the Ford oval appeared on the rear deck lid of the T-bird? I want to think 1988 or 1989. Can someone confirm?

The only blue oval on my '88 Sport is on the chrome rocker panel cover inside the door.

1989 was the first year a ford emblem apopeared on the outside. It was on the left rear trunklid. My 88 has no emblem on the outside, and as stated above only on the roker panels insode the doors.
