Yesterday I saw a yellow 79-80 Chrysler New Yorker. I'm sure it's the same car I saw last fall, was very clean then. Now it was out in the winter muck and missing a rear corner cap with a dent in the deck lid.
-
Interesting...so on those '59s, was it two wheelbases or 'short' and long deck variations? (Like the '61-64 Cadillac Park Avenues).

Speaking of Buick and their image, though they have tried and succeeded with some models to rid themselves of the old man's car image, but true to stereotype, about an hour ago, I saw a new black LaCrosse pulling into a bowling alley and a guy at least 70 got out....

Electra 225...it was 225 inches long some particular year, I think?

Well, there is already overlap in prices....MKX starts at around $40k, Edge Titanium and Sport can be optioned up close to $50k...(using the B&P I got both Edges to over 48k). Ford's packages are really weird, though, be causing one removes the features of another, so adding one can lower the price.. -
Because there a lot more Ford dealers than Lincoln dealers? Volume....

The side trim, rear quarters and fins remind me a lot of the '57 DeSoto Adventurer...

Hyundai News:Hyundai Drops First Images of 2019 Santa Fe
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Hyundai
or Ford..the current Santa Fe has a front reminiscent of the Ford Edge.. -
Yes, that was it..didn't meet reserve in '15. https://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/1955-CHRYSLER-ST-SPECIAL-GHIA-180484 The car I saw in '13 was the Diablo and the one in '17 was the Streamline X Gilda... https://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/1956-CHRYSLER-DIABLO-CONCEPT-CONVERTIBLE-137871 https://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/1955-CHRYSLER-GHIA-STREAMLINE-X-GILDA-204876 One thing I do miss about living in Arizona is going to Barrett-Jackson every January...such a fascinating variety of cars to be seen..huge event. Only missed one year between '07 and '17.

It is nice looking, I particularly like the rear of the 2nd gen Edge. But for a 2 row midsize CUV/SUV, I prefer JGCs.
-
This whole argument about are they a receiver or a runner at a point in time and did they maintain control of the ball is just taken to extremes w/ the current catch rule...
-
That is cool...was that one the Ghia-bodied show cars of that era? I've seen a couple Ghia bodied Mopars at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale over the years.. Saw this Chrysler at BJ '15..don't recall the deets though...
-
It will be interesting to see what it goes for..it's easy to option up the Sport close to $50k.

Speaking of Dads and cars, I need to digitize a bunch of photos of the cars my Dad had over the years...his first car was a '32 Ford 5 window coupe, had a '40 Packard coupe when he married my Mom in '48, first new car was a 49 Ford Fordor, last new car was a '96 Lincoln Town Car with lots of Fords, Mercurys, and Lincolns (and one Dodge truck, '56 Chevy, and a '66 HIno Contessa) in-between....

Sorry to hear that...losing parents can be rough...lost my Dad at age 78 in 1999 after a 3 year fight with cancer. That hit me hard as we were close. Lost my Mom almost 2 years ago at age 85, felt nothing. She and I had been semi-estranged for a while..

The shade of blue of the interior trim reminds me of old Netgear routers.. -
Yes, steel rims and hubcaps don't look good on modern cars...but on late 60s-early 70s muscle cars, they look fantastic, IMO...
-
Yes they did..would have been nice to see them in the Super Bowl. The catch rule calls this season have been crazy. Since the Browns are so horrible I've gone back to being a Steelers fan also (which I was as a kid since I was close to the Burgh living in Steubenville).

Dream Garage- New Average Transaction Price Edition
Robert Hall replied to Frisky Dingo's topic in The Lounge
This was fun...kind of front loaded it with the first 4 choices optioned up, the last one is a practical stripper. The GC is the comfy luxury daily driver SUV, just a bit fancier than my current GC. The Colorado is the practical little truck for some light duty hauling. The Wrangler, Challenger, and Miata are for fun on Ohio's back roads... 2018 Jeep Wrangler Sport S 2dr 4x4 firecracker red w/ tan & black interior manual $33870.00 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4x4 V6 walnut brown w/ brown & frost beige interior $48180.00 2018 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack octane red (dark berry red) w/ red & black interior Hemi manual $44415.00 2018 Mazda MX-5 Miata GT meteor gray mica w/ tan interior manual $32145.00 2018 Chevy Colorado 2wd extended cab deep wood green metallic, 4cyl manual $21235.00 -

That was a painful one--2014, they destroyed my Broncos. One of Syd Mead's designs?

January 2018: Ford Motor Company
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Sales Figure Ticker
Haven't seen one yet. They look like they sit higher than a Trax. Would like to see one parked next to a Trax.
