Very cool Zymurgy

Well, not the typical car for the thread, but still on topic.
The "cool" thing, it's still parked in the same driveway with the same plates 35 years later.
I was about 9 during the first pic, do my own driving now with the car.

My wedding day July 14, 1990. In my 78 T-Bird, pimp mobile. The T-bird I bought from my great Aunt 2 years earlier 10 years old only 20,000 miles, always garaged, never driven in bad weather.

Beautiful. When I was a kid, my great grandparents neighbor had a silver one. He would wash it every other day. I was in love with that car.

This car was perfect when I got it. Mine had the emerald green interior, but had manual seats. I went to the junk yard and found a power seat out of a Cougar for $20. It fit and matched perfectly and was prewired for power seats, so it took me about 15 minutes to replace. I drove it for another 12 years.

On a side note my "buddies" put small bird seeds down the vents on my wedding day, until the day I sold it when you hit a bump and had the blower on it would spit out bird seeds.

When I was a kid probably about 13 an upper classman ordered a brand new one from his family's dealership. It was the emerald green, loaded with every option available, and it was beautiful.

It was the first one in town and I was hanging out with him at the dealership as he detailed it for it's first drive to school the next day. That was the first time I heard Aeorsmith's Toys in the Attic album also. And the first time I drank a beer other than from Dad's stash in the fridge

Found another picture of the 57 Plymouth being unloaded in Germany when my uncle went for a visit. He said it cost $500 to ship it there. It was unfortunately scanned small.

Its always neat to see original owner pictures of when these cars were new. It is difficult to believe someone could walk in, lay down some green and buy a vehicle as ferocious as these cars were.

Damn......two tags? Any idea where the car is now?

My grandfather invested in a Vette and never drove it. My father drove it once every year in the homecoming parade. I was really young, but I remember watching him go by in the parade with the homecoming king and queen sitting up on top of the t-tops. My dad was on top of the world if only for an hour each year. There was no way in hell he could afford to own such a car himself.
