And I just drove home from the Ford dealer in my brand-new Thunderbird four-door Landau. What a beauty:

20230104 202951
20230104 202930
20230104 203014

I did cross-shop it with another sporty, luxurious, powerful four-door, from Buick:

20230104 205008
20230104 204728

I would have also looked at a Chrysler 300 4-door hardtop but couldn't find one anywhere!

Very nice models Moe. It would have been fun to own that full sized Thunderbird.

Those '67 Birds were very unique. My buddy had several (he used to take out the 429 engines 😎).  I was always interested in all the interior overhead lights (located above the windshield).  A nice looking model!

That Brooklin Tbird is on my wish list.  A girl friend’s mother had a 2 door white with a vinyl top.  Very smooth ride.  😎

Loved the four door Landau with it's overhead console and suicide rear doors. Every detail of this car said Luxury.

I had a '69 Landau 2 door. What an incredible interior!

LOL! Correct. I had to learn how to properly adjust my rear view mirrors on that car. It had a huge blind spot! Once I learned the secret to eliminating blind spots, I've been using it ever since.

A treasured model in my collection. I received an original model from John Roberts as a gift a few years back.
