As previously posted, the T-Bird convention was this morning




It was at the Holiday Inn, a block North of Aero Dr, on Murphy Canyon Dr.

Nice people, but strange taste in cars. After the 57, I lost apprecation for the exterior design, and they had the one speedometer without a glass face, just big plastic numbers, with bar speedo needle under the numbers. Yuck.

Why is this T-Birds radio marked wrong?

the Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD) car and motorcycle show for the Marine Corps Toys for Tots drive to bring unpriviledged kids xmas toys


This is the most recognizeable Marine today I think, and he is very active in charity work like the Marine Corps Toys for Tots drives, R. Lee Ermey. This chopper is his, and an up close gallery of it is here: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/06/coolest-chopper-well-probably-see-all_19.html









Damn, Cisneros is good at lettering and pinstriping


Barely visible above the writing is the pinstriping on the roof... now think about paying for pinstriping that only the people taller than 6 foot 5 inches will ever see
