FAB1's now a ford.

Watching breakfast TV this morning, and they did a bit on the new thunderbirds movie, and in particular Lady Penelope's FAB1. It's still pink, only it's lost the Rolls Royce radiator. I thought it looked like the new resurrected ford thunderbird, and sure enough the bloke that built the car seemed on a massion to say the word Ford as many times as possible in a 2 minute interview...and its got a Ford 350cu in V8...all very high tech!

I can accept pretty much anything about thunderbirds - they really do live on an Island, they really have built their own kit, they've got into space without anyone noticing, but I can never accept Lady Pen would ditch her Roller for a Ford.

Well you never know: the upkeep of the stately home she had must be enormous ....

Hi William

She could always swap her new Ford for a Pink/Purple TVR Tuscan. How are things going? I hope they are better.

That car would be a challenge for even Brains. Mind you, if he took his glasses of I bet it would be a real dazzler.

Seriously though, no better yet unfortunately - if anything, worse.

I thought it looked a lot like the Chrsler Crossfire and the DB7 (albeit it stretched)
