Some Greco Thunderbird II video, this was the first song we played that night (it later deteriorated into a sweaty mass of bodies) so the guitar is kind low in the mix - but you can hear the bass!
Drive that Thunderbird!

Sure, as long as I get to throw a North in…
Add to the humiliation and take really clear closeups.....
It's official. I take worse pics that you.
I musta drunk more than I thought - I’m seeing triple!
Yep, mine did as well and ran awful until it got good and hot. I have no reservation in saying that it caused more pollution and wasted fuel by making the car run rough by having that wonderful environmental goodness on it. No matter how I tried to adjust the carburetor, nothing helped and a most adjustments easily made it much worse.That would be the 76 Chrysler Cordoba with the "lean burn" 400 I used to own. I can still imagine Ricardo Montebahn (sp) in those commercials.

Interesting catalog that seller has, a bit pricey though...I ordered them custom from ebay user clower777

, he has different colors/color combinations available, as well as different styles. I asked for that specific combo, it wasn't a regular offering.
Yeah, that was her dad, and on-screen towards the end, too

I always thought it was a pretty classy looking car in its day. Looks dated now, but then so does everything that isn’t shaped like a jellybean.Yep, mine did as well and ran awful until it got good and hot.

Even so, it was and will always be my favorite car. The inside was so pretty it was always a conversation starter with the ladies, and I don't mean that in a tacky way. It was beautiful inside. The outside wasn't too bad either. Can't see the Landau roof.

My oldest is the Flamingo. Oldest bass is the EB-2 of indistinct vintage. Gotta love garbled up Gibson serial number information.Good morning! Love that ‘64(?) and all the mojo that comes with it. Gotta get me one of those some day.
So I guess it’s Up Close Tuesday:

Very true. I'd likely buy a good one if I found one. It would be a good match. I was classy looking in my day, but look dated now too.I always thought it was a pretty classy looking car in its day. Looks dated now, but then so does everything that isn’t shaped like a jellybean.
