We Americans Will Buy Anything...

     It's true. I believe we Americans during the 70's & 80's would've bought just about anything a car manufacturer tried to pawn off on us so long as it had the words "special edition" or "limited edition" in it's name. They even slapped a fashion designer's name & logo on a few Lincoln's in the mid-late 70's & sure as shootin...we just HAD to have one!           Below are just a few of the real dandy's offered up to us in supposed "limited numbers" way back when (along with my usual comedic opinion). Enjoy...
