  1. My 71 LTD had the 400 as well. And yes, it was quick as you mentioned. 400 was pretty torquey. Plus, it got 15-20 MPG.
  2. Missing link is doing a 72 Montego GT? Did you get that from ML or someone else?
  3. I had a 71 LTD, similar to this one, for a couple of years back in the mid 70s
  4. I have a couple of the cast metal frames/chassis. IIRC, R&D Unique made them
  5. A red last-gen Thunderbird with a rear-mounted spare and fins like a 57. Weird.
  6. Trip to West LA: Subaru Crosstrek with Vermont license plates BMW i8 Buick TourX A Lamborghini of some sort, going the other way on Santa Monica Blvd. Electric hummer Several tesla trucks.
  7. Black ID Buzz at the local VW dealership.
  8. A really nice 914 on display at the Galpin Porsche palace.

  14. Does anyone recall if there was a kit with an early Hemi that had IMPERIAL on the rocker covers?
  15. It was $20.00 for admission to the show, which included the display of as many vehicles as an entrant wanted, not "to display a car". Andy Kellock was the one who passed away. A good guy, greatly missed.
  16. 1966 Ford Country Squire Station Wagon 4 dr. resin 1/25th Galaxie 1/25th | eBay
  17. 64 Thunderbird hardtop and a 64 Comet convertible. Separate sightings, out in the brutal sunny 70-degree winter weather.
  18. Adjustable pedals were available on several Ford Models. In the Maserati Bora, the seats were stationary, with adjustable pedals and steering wheel
  19. Not to mention the "Gallery" in the passenger side of the dash, a mini art installation you can customize.
  20. That's interesting, A 66 Country squire with a Galaxie/Country Sedan/Ranch Wagon Grille. Most 66 Squires have the LTD/XL/7-Litre grille:
