    I was fortunate to see the Italien at the Blackhawk a number of years ago. As others have said, it would have made a great version of the t-bird.
    Thanks for the video.

    I met Tom Maruska, the person who restored the Italien, at the 2007 Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale. What a craftsman! He later sold it at a subsequent Barrett-Jackson auction for $600K to the Blackhawk Museum.

    The T-Bird that should have been built! I never understood the squared off roofline on the bullet birds, and for Ford to abandon this fastback design right when they were coming into style was a mistake IMHO.

    My Dad had a '61 Thunderbird...What a great car that was! The 390c.i. V8 powered it effortlessly and quietly, with lots of torque. It's engine sound and power delivery was much like an early 70's Mercedes 450SL. The interior was fantastic, the dual cowl dashboard, dual bucket seats, and bright metal center console was space age while also being elegant and sporty. The slide over steering column was very different, my Dad used to say it was so large people could easily get in and out of the car and there was some truth in that. The doors were long, heavy, but quite well designed, providing easy access for rear passengers. Back seats were also really comfy and roomy. The trunk space was big enough to call a 2nd home ha ha ha

    One of those GM marketing busses was parked on Moorpark St. in Sherman Oaks, CA. in the early 2000s. It was rumored to be owned by somebody with the Cadillac dealership close by. At the time Moorpark had unrestricted parking and the bus would disappear for a couple of days and the reappear on the same block. It still possessed the red and silver livery and I passed it every day. Never stopped to get an up close view but sure wish I had.

      I worked at Casa de Cadillac in the 80's and it used to be stored in the alley behind and I was lucky enough to go up in the cab at the time, the guy who said he owned it at that time was around 55. I was 30 ish! Great memory!

I moved to S.O. in '94 and the vehicle was still there for a few years. Redevelopment/gentrification has rendered the area NO PARKING now.

    The Italians didn't add a positive thing to the 63 T bird. Their main addition was the roof line which was not nearly as attractive as the stock one. A perfect example is GM executives hubris of dismissing their own designers on the Allante and instead had an Italian company make the body and then ship it to America. That ridiculous idea raised the cost for the cars to a nose bleed level that the cars quality didn't deserve. Then the early power plants were anemic and the early Northstar engines were a reliability disaster.

    For all my life, and for a long time prior, The General Motors logo has been a capital G and a capital M, which is fitting as the two letters are supposed to be capitalized since the two words are a name. As a certified car guy, most of my working life has been about cars, and I now work at a GMC, Buick, and Chevrolet dealership. BUT, about a year and a half ago, GM changed their logo; it is now both letters in lower case! I find this reprehensible, offending my sensibilities regarding both grammar and tradition. GM says it is to show their embrace of electric vehicles, but I think it is more Corporate Kowtowing to the Woke Mob. No, I don't like it.
