My parents are slowly doing up a 66 Town Coupe, and they have bought a few parts from Thunderbird HQ in the states.

TBHQ

Interior Parts

They seem pretty happy with the stuff they have purchased.

Also try Nick's Tbirds in Los Angeles. Nick is a great guy and not only sells parts new and second hand but does full restorations.

Good luck

Few of the guys have had trouble with the parts from Larry's - parts arriving that are damaged, not in transit but from him direct.

Ah ok, I was in the states in '06 and we got a few parts there then, and brought them back with us, could possibly be a transport issue.

The guys I have dealt with so far have been great, keeping package size under max postage costs, using various companies etc etc

Have a big order with this guy atm, bloody brilliant bloke to deal with, emails are friendly and have spoken to him a couple of times on the phone.

Seems to have all the right contacts as well

Obviously Nick!
