why are you invading Russia in a French maid's outfit?  ???

I would have thought the nurse's outfit - the white would be perfect camo ;)

I bought my '76 Thunderbird new for $750.

I bought my first one new for $400, half price sale in 1977 because it had been in the store too long and they wanted to get rid of it.  I still have it.

As distracting as the thought of Mark in a french maids outfit is, getting back to the 'bird. Less than 8 hours to go not one bid. I emailed the seller and am in negotiations  with him. I hope to get it. The pickups scare me a little, Duncan or Dimarzio ? Would be cool if they were model Gs ! Time will tell.

"it has to sell because we are not lowering the price, this is it." So much for negotiation. I will be curious to see if someone pops for the 750. To much imho. Honestly for that kind of scratch I'd rather buy two more Bachbirds.
