For Raydar, a Plymouth:

It runs well, but doesn't handle worth beans.

I like the old Mopars. But yeah... I had a friend who had a 69(?) Charger with a 440 magnum. Handled like a steamship.

This was my '71 Barracuda. Looked decent, and had some cool options (Rally cluster, A/C, Console-mounted cassette recorder, houndstooth upholstery, manual trans) but it was a real POS. May it rust in peace.


That picture was why I specifically called you out.

A lot of beautiful cars there.  Both the picture centerpieces and in the backgrounds.  Thanks for sharing with us.

Thanks.  Were those three Fords the model for the subject of the song?

The 3 red ones are Deuces but not Coupes.  The last dark burgandy convertible is a Chevrolet.  Probably around a '36.

Why does the burgundy convertible have a leaping animal for a hood ornament?

Well. I forgot that I had posted it earlier in the thread. Looked through my posting history and didn't see it, so I figured I was good.

But then, I've slept since then...

It is actually a 36 ford and they used a greyhound as the hood ornament on Deluxe models.

How about a couple of Mustangs:




The yellow one is a Dodge Challenger.

You're right on the Challenger.

Yes, the blue one is a Shelby Daytona.  Thr back is very ugly.

I had never previously heard of a Bevedere.

Doh! I confused the Daytona with the Cheeta.
And I left the 'l' out of Belvedere.... still not sure if that's spelled correctly.  ::)
I blame it all on old age.  :P
I did a search for the Cheeta & found this:
The Bill Thomas Cheetah was an American sports car designed and engineered entirely with American components, and built from 1963 to 1966 by Chevrolet performance tuner Bill Thomas. It was developed as a competitor to Carroll Shelby 's Cobra.

Since it was an unfamiliar model for me, I was guessing that I had mentally added the 'l'.   ;)

These came out when I was in the Navy, and I thought it was the coolest thing on wheels at the time.

The Superbird was not popular with car buyers at the time, but it seems there was a cartoon version of that.
