The Great Plotnik

Win a Ride!

Have you ever seen a more beautiful automobile than this one? Who knows what it is, and the year? Make your guesses, and the winner wins a ride down the Champs d'Elysees for the French Victory Celebration.

(Ring) Allo? Oh, oui? Le Head Butt? Ah, Merde. Merci.

Sorry, the Celebration has been cancelled.

But do you know what this gorgeous car is? And why did it pull up in front of The Great Plotnik yesterday next door to Costco? And why did the lady stop so Plotnik had no choice but to get out of the car and take its picture?

When Plottie was but a teensy Plotito, he dreamed of owning an old Morgan, British racing green, with a leather strap across the hood. Now, more mature, he might be willing to exchange this car dream for the other car dream.

(Ring) Hello? Is there a garage at The Great Plotnik World Headquarters and Meatball Kitchen in which to house this dream? Ah, well, not exactly, but...hello? Hello?

That's a Ford Thunderbird. I thought they were a bit awkward looking (although they look nice as a convertible). They were also pretty expensive (they stopped making them in 2005).

I'd keep your old dream car...

My dad's best friend had a classic turquoise t-bird in the 60s, only I remember the top as more squared off in the back. The port hole was there tho. Coo-wull.
