Goofy looking? That's an old T-Bird

I sat in that thunderbird. Its very tight, and kind of clausterphobic. I'm an average size guy, and wasn't comfortable in it. the steering wheel touches my thighs. and sitting in the seat my head is right in the spot behind the door windows, and and above the port holes. so I have no vision to the side.

I need to assemble a crew to help me push that thunderbird out of my way. i guess it ran out of gas right there or something.

The '02 T-Birds had those windows too. I thought they looked sharp.

seems like every spring, people drag their collectible cars out of the back of the garage and bring them down here. spend a bunch of money getting them running, steering, and driving right, then park them back in the garage, then repeat the process every 2-3 years.
they all have stale gas, they all have rodent odors, and a mouse nest somewhere, and they all have at least 2 decent fluid leaks.

A '67? It looks good. What's wrong with it?
