<VV>Retro

[Charles Lee at Proper Pro Per]

The retro T-Bird was disappointing to me.  It looks those old Japanese 
tin-toys that had the driver painted on the outside of the windshield, and 
all of the features rounded off (to make it easy to stamp) and then painted 
on.

The T-Bird needs the projectile-type headlamp protrusions, and of course, 
fins !!!!  (Or at least something legally reminiscent of fins ?)
