1968 Ford Thunderbird fodor comeback special
| March 1, 2007
Red with Black Leather Interior and Black Landau Hardtop. 4 suicide door model, 429 engine, 8 cyl, am 8 track, 77,000 original miles...I bought this car from Vanna White's family on the same street that I was hit by lightning on. Funny thing after buying the car I saw that the Ford poster has Lightning in the promo for this auto! I have worked on cars since I was 13 and loved the cars of the 60's. I sat on my Uncle Bob's armrest in his when I was a kid and thought how cool the style was then. Since I was one of the last NYC PB Bunnies...It was used in a Playboy Shoot and VH-1 Jim
Morrison Special. The car needs a cool candy apple red paint job but it runs strong and I have spent a number of years restoring it for me and getting greasy while working on it! This year I realised that I am a different car (this was my 18th cool car). I will sadly be listing it for sale. The car is so special and I played Sinatra music on the am regularly. It has had a life of it's own and some extra bodywork now too!
