Are there 2 different front ends for the 1969 Thunderbird 4 door? I see pictures of some that have a flat nose and some that have a pointy nose.

Question type: General

I'm looking at buying a 1969 Ford Thunderbird and I'm trying to research the
car and I keep seeing some 4 door Landau with a flat nose grill and some with
a pointy nose grill. Does anybody know if I'm looking at different year cars or
was there 2 different front ends?

Well, just found out you can only send one pic at a time so here is the 1969. The white one is a 1970

Thank you so much OldTimer37. Do you have a picture of a 1970 4 door Landau? I think the seller has a 1970 4 door Landau and thinks he has a 1969. His car definitely has the beak.
