My family lived with your lot in 59-61 - Troon... right next door to
St Andrews... and Prestwick.... Good people but the cars were kinda
sucky... : ) Ford Anglia, Vauxhall, etc....

I do believe that it is a real challenge to actually design and
produce an ugly car.... I'm reminded of the Edsel, Aztec, and a few
others through the intervening years.... considering all the people
who have to be convinced that the public will scoop them up, and the
company is not going to lose any money on them.

Even some Mustang IIs are getting hot....

So, in all those years, and one of the reasons it still exists, there
seems to be something for every taste 'cause people have continued to
buy them.
