Forget 'Baby on board'

[Rick Potter]

I suppose someday 'they' will tell me I can only drive my '55 T-Bird on Saturdays between 5 and 7 AM. Wouldn't want to annoy other 'drivers'.

1.) Wow. Spectacular car.
2.) The EU just passed a law that slows down speeding cars.

I guess that makes Porsches, Lamborghinis, and Ferraris irrelevant.

Neato torpedo car, Rick.

I worked with a man who owned one ('55) in the turquoise blue similar to this:

Geez, Rick. It only took you four pages until you got to what you really wanted to talk about... (That's about as far from a self-driving Tesla as you can get.)

Does that have custom fenders/ headlight extensions? Looks like the headlights protrude farther forward from the bumper than what I remember or see on other pictures,

Just the angle of the pic Bob. It is all original except for a few minor mods. It was built in Sept '54, and is one of the first 250 T-Birds.

That is my grand daughter driving it. She will be graduating with a degree in (honest) Funeral Services. Already does embalming. She also just got engaged to a rocket engineer in Texas.

And yes, I can talk about old cars all day, owned close to 200.
