Oh my ****ing god, I absolutely cannot wait to get home to my photoshop. I think I'm going to have to buy that car now.

You know, if this car had a 4-speed, an interior that didn't prove Gunny's theories on Texas correct, and was painted black, it would be pretty awesome.

As it is, you need like +90 molestache powers just to get near it.

While the young Fiesta gains strength, the Focus must protect it from the F-150 Raptors that stalk the water holes. Fiestas are able to drive from birth, but are weak and slow, and until they are three months old they are vulnerable to predators. Soon, though, they will join their parents to follow the coming of the rains.

I've met John (a long time ago) and fueled a few of his airplanes when I was in college. He is genuinely not a douchebag. He's a really smart, really nice guy. The two negatives about him are that he has soooooo much money, and lives like someone who has soooooo much money, that I don't think he can really relate to the daily lives of 'normal' people, and he's totally in the grips of $cientology.

For things like this car, and the album cover pictured above, you gotta realise that (a) it was the 70's, and (b) his managers and publicists did all that stuff and it seemed like a good idea at the time because he was getting paid. Laugh if you will, but that cheesy shiat made him enough $$$ to afford his own Boeing 707 (and G-II, and LR24, etc., etc.).

 Re: (MylesPH1) »« »

Since Urban Cowboy was filmed in 79, I'd guess it's a 79. Released in 1980, but the cars in it were 79 or older.

Not saying this car was in the film, just contemporary to it.

Eidt: Sounds like the car was already completed before Urban Cowboy, so maybe it's even older.

'78 Firebirds looked like this;

then they changed it so the '79 looked like this;

so it could be a '79 at the earliest..

Thanks, I forgot all the Minuit details over the years. One of my neighbors had a blue one similar to the 77 you posted. (6.6, shaker hood) He was convinced it would be a real collectors item someday because large engines would no longer be used in cars.
