For what its worth, the evolution, if you will, of the Guild Thunderbird S-200, Polara S-100 and Jet-Star S-50 from company brochures. Hans can probably shed some light on whether they actually built a Thunderbird that looked like the 1963 catalog version.

Yeah, I was surprised at that TB from '63 - I always associated it with that classic shape as per the '66 catalogue. I guess they wanted to have more differentiation between the TB & the S-100.
