Post by: Manky Monkey on November 20, 2011, 09:50:42 AM Ford Thunderbirds. Lovely aren't they. The way the rear seats fold when the top's down, so that there's a continuous line from the front seats down to the trunk, is being hailed as a modern design innovation by several manufacturers now. Ford were doing it 60 years ago.
Billy Gibbons owns a custom version, called Mexican Blackbird, (after one of ZZ Top's hits), & painted to match his guitar. Title: Re: Dear Father Christmas..... Post by: poprodder on November 20, 2011, 09:13:27 PM drove around in one at nats. way to wallowy for me.
