I'm really liking the style of this Crown Vic. The color is perfect too.

To think all of those cars are stock, except the pickup. Such American Beauty.

No expense was spared. Now the problem would be to pick out just one, impossible.

I had one of those for a short while back in the early 70's; dark blue with white leather interior. Had a 410 that got around 12 mpg, timing was terrible, bought it right before the oil embargo/gas shortage and ended up selling the car back to the dealer at a loss.

Looked like the above, except for the top (mine was white vinyl).

That's is part of the fun of going to Carlisle each year. Those Fords, Lincolns, Mercurys, and yes Edsels of the 50's/60's are absolutely beautiful. :up:

Cause there is barely any real pride in ownership any more. It's the same reason that new houses are so bland on the outside these days. And it's not even like they have diverted focus from form to function, they just completely ignored it.

What the auto industry needs is another Harley Earl.
