Thunderbird Special Landau to be included in Simeone Museum Exhibit

[QuickSilverShelby]

Thanks guys. I appreciate the kind words.

Filling in a few details...
Car is a 1965 Thunderbird "Special Landau" (Limited Edition; plaque says # 1485 of 4500)
Emberglo was only available on this Limited Edition run in 1965 (could get it on any T-bird in '66 IIRC).

Oops.  Sorry about that.  Amazing car you have.

The full Exhibit at the Museum is outstanding... leaving the "Dream" up for interpretation certainly makes for a wide variety of cool rides    Here's a few... including the Museum's supercharged Duesenberg that joined the Daytona Coupe for the Salt Flats Demo Day.


I picked up a supercharged Avanti as a neighbor

I suppose that a Mustang convertible is the Dream of many

Model A that still races (at "the Race of Gentlemen")

crazy "T" racer - I've never seen a head conversion like that!

incredible "Woody" wagon

one of one Yenko Stinger Convertible

Dan Gurney edition

The display is a great and unique collection of cars. I suggest anyone in the area come and see it. The demo of the "Salt Flat Cars" was really cool. I think the Thunderbird is an example of understated excellence and something likely never to be repeated by a large manufacturer again. Everything about that car with the exception of the engine and transmission are totally unique to the T Bird, plus the color is really a great look for the car. Each car there has a great story and thanks to all for bringing them to the museum for the rest of us to enjoy

thanks Steve. It was nice to see you there.

Did you snap any photos of your - Phenominal    - display of LSR models and memorabilia (not to mention your car)? THat was a super idea and very cool that the Museum let you set up there to tie-in with the Demo day.
