For #CelicaSaturday, we’re going Dutch, with these two fine examples from 1973, both based in the Netherlands. 🩵❤️

@67gta390 Based on an old SNL skit, you can safely circumcise an infant male in the back seat 😊

Back when this was considered "luxury". I would & did feel safer in this land yacht vs some of today's cracker boxes loaded with air bags and crumple zones.

@67gta390 Wheels look similar to early 911 Porsche Fuchs.

@67gta390 It has too much early '60s GM styling cues. I'm glad this one didn't go anywhere.

@67gta390 My favorite fox-body configuration; 2-door Post Sedan Mustang.

I always wanted one of these. I prefer it over the hatchback or convertible.

@67gta390 1979.
I know the previous Pinto-based Mustang was a sales success. But the styling and proportions didn't suit me.

@67gta390 It was shelved because it would have ate into Continental sales.

@67gta390 The '66 created the legacy . . . the '26 is just following it.

60 years from now, do you think a 2026 Mustang GT will reach today's collector status & valve of a restored 1966 K-Code Mustang GT? I personally don't think it ever will.
Note:
I just did a "build your 2026 Mustang GT" and it retailed for $67,685!! The 1966 GT was $2800-$3000 (about $30k today).

@DaveDuricy @DowdEdward China also purchased oil from Venezuela. I think that supply has been disrupted too.

@DowdEdward 50% of China’s oil supply comes through the Straight of Hormuz. The pressure is on the paper tiger.

@DaveDuricy @Jvnior Remember that if it wasn't for France aiding the 'Colonies', we'd be a Commonwealth of the U.K. today.

@Jvnior What country was it that gave sanctuary to the Ayatollah back in the Seventies? That’s right, France! I wonder what interesting intelligence we’ll find in Iran. 🤔

@67gta390 That was when the big 3 made profits selling all sizes of 2-door, 4-door sedans and wagons. Not anymore, easier to load up trucks with options for easy profits.

Remember when they boasted about "lowest" price? All truck makers need to go back to this concept!

I was never there, but I bet the 50s and 60s West coast was probably a paradise.
