Our 1979 Thunderbird

[bug_dude]

This is our 1979 Thunderbird. It's an unrestored car that's still in excellent condition with 95,000 original miles. It's a 302 V8 and gets 15 mpg, which isn't bad considering the size of the car. My wife drives it on a pretty regular basis during the warm weather months, and we entered it in a few classic car shows last summmer.

Cool That sounds like a nice one! I haven't seen very many green T-Birds.

Your '79 looks real nice!

Back in the day, a friend of mine had a dark green on green '78. What a cush-mobile. It was a car Huggy Bear would drive... or maybe someone from Charlie's Angels.

I really liked that car.

Wow brings back memories. When I was little my mom drove a red one just like this one and my dad drove a Mustang II.

Cool As a matter of fact, Bosley on Charlie's Angels did drive a dark green '78 Thunderbird!

Sounds like your parents had some cool cars when you were a kid
