Title: CART PPG Thunderbird Pace Car
Post by: 5.0 tbird on April 26, 2012, 09:18:48 PM
I usually use my scanner for things like this, but I just found out it's not compatible with my new PC with Windows 7. So I used my camera, sorry for the glare.

Cool, but the really cool PPG pace car TBird is the white/orange one leading that row of them (ahead of the blue Fiero or Daytona or whatever it is, can't tell on my iPhone). It's actually featured in another recent thread here...

As soon as I saw that, I thought of the pics you posted of it Carm...it's for sure a neat car.

I really like the white Bird, would love to see more pictures of it. So far I have only seen the couple that were posted in the other thread and then the few glimpses in the article above.

Ick. Those wheels are hideous, and have no place on an 83-88 TBird or Cougar.

Gotta agree with Chuck on thhe wheels. I'm picturing them on a Gremlin or Maverick. They're more 70's than 80's...

The stance and tire size on that car are perfect......the wheels are more for a early muscle car, than a aero car.  JMHO

I agree.  Well about being on a 83-88 T-bird/Cougar anyway.  Now if that were a '64 Fairlane or something, they would look cool.  Not period correct for an 80's machine IMO.
