I had one in white with the blue velour interior. It was a wreck when I got it, and hardly better than a wreck when I sold it. FALARAK helped me change out the bumper after some dude in Waco hooked his truck tire on it and bent her out. But it drove like a fucking dream. I drove that car from Irving to Fort Worth every night to being my Dad a burger at the hospital. Texas summers with no A/C, back when I was a smoker. I fucking loved that car.

Years ago, my boss bought a car like that. He got really, really pissed at me when I referred to it as his "pimpmoblie".

It needs lowered a little but I'd rock it as is. Probably gets 10mpg.Mobsteel in Detroit could make it awesome.

I'd rock it. I'd want to turn it into a mild sleeper, though, since the factory engine probably has 2.1:1 compression and drink straw intake and exhaust runners . Something with a lot of cubes, decent compression but still pump gas friendly, and a bunch of mufflers to keep it tame while cruising, but electric cutouts for acceleration.

back when cars transmitted ALL of the kinetic energy of an accident into the occupants' bodies instead of absorbing it via crumple zones.

"Muh Detroit iron!" was responsible for fucking up plenty of bodies.  I'll take modern cars with energy-absorbing crumple zones over old-school Detroit iron any day of the week.

Fun Elvis fact:  Elvis had Cadillacs in Memphis and Lincolns in LA.


And when Elvis decided it was time for a new car every one on the place went with him down to the dealership and everybody got a new car.

You pretty much summed up the 80 IQ GD Luddite right there.

Probably crashed in the first place because they saw an F-4 flying overhead to a museum somewhere and were watching it in case it decided to kick some F-22 ass on the way.

I LOVE huge '60's and '70's US made sedans. Makes me wish I was a contract killer for the mob. You can fit like five bodies it the trunk without even trying; not even counting an extra dead hooker or two.
