Re: Tbirds on TV

Watching a mid 60's movie, Seven Days in May (re: military takeover of the US government; good flick; Ava Gardner and Burt Lancaster).

Kirk Douglas drives a 62 grey TBird Landau. (Black and white movie, but he asks the valet for his grey TBird).

Bringing back an interesting oldie but goodie video, as we prepare for spring cruising weather. Besides there may be some newer members who haven't seen it before. I'm glad to see it is still available.

James, thanks for posting that website. Too short but good to see the early birds. Once they went to the square birds, I quit looking at them. See quite a few 60's at the annual Maple Leaf festival car show in Carthage,Mo. every fall. What surprised me was the clip on the King Cobra Torino. I'd never seen that model but I wasn't watching car racing on tv-was 'racing' on our backroad quarter mile strip.

I was just watching the first episode of "Quantum Leap" from 1989 and one of the hotshot test pilots from 1956 was driving a white convertible with a continental kit.

We have a local tire store, Carrol's Tire Warehouse, a guy dressed as a tire pulls over to help a blonde in a TR with a flat tire.

There are a lot of Birds to be seen in "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World".

A white 60s bird was wrecked by the villian in an attempt to kill the ADA Vegas last week. Its a great show for classic car watching

Re: Tbirds on TV

I saw that!

It was an awful crash, and ruined a great T-Bird.

What a waste!

Anyone see the beginning of the '49ers v. Seahawks game? An NFL promo at Pike Place Market showed a 2002 blue T-bird parked right up front!

Re: Tbirds on TV

I looked but didn't see this one listed yet. Bad Ink on A&E, the tattoo artist drives a 60's era black Tbird in the intro.

Re: Tbirds on TV

There is a whisper white retrobird with the soft top up at about 6:43 into this week's episode of TNT's "Dallas". It's only on the screen for a couple of seconds, but shows up quite nicely.

The show repeats on TNT Wed. night at 10pm Eastern/9pm Central and Saturday at 10am Eastern/9am Central.

Re: Tbirds on TV

Here's a link to a list of T-birds on TV shows and in movies I discovered today:

http://www.imcdb.org/vehicles.php?re...erbird&page=61

I have the link on the page that starts with 2002s. The next page is of retros as well, but you can go backwards on the list for models all the way back to the '55s.
