Re: 2009 T-Bird sightings

Saw another MSB here in Huntsville today. I was coming back from lunch and saw it coming from the opposite direction. I waved and honked, and the driver actually STOPPED! Naturally, I flipped back around and pulled up alongside. I was in the SportTrac, not the Bird, so she said she only stopped 'cause she thought it was someone else she knew! She said she'd just gotten it, and she loved it! I told her I had one just like it, and that she should go check out TBN. Hopefully she'll become a member, and we'll see her here.

Roger, sounds like you're gathering up a club in your area.

Re: 2009 T-Bird sightings

Friday night we stopped by a local liquor store, and I waited in the car while my brother-in-law went inside to pick his poison. While I sat there, the owner pulled up in a Cashmere (like mine - only not...), so of course I had to get out and talk to him. His was a daily driver and well-used, so it bore little resemblance to mine, which is a garage queen, but we had a nice chat nonetheless. He didn't know where the ltd. edition #s were located, so I showed him (he had # 551, and the barcode was still over the number plaque). He had bought the car used in TX with only 2,000 mi. Previously, he had purchased a Torch Red when they were first introduced in '02. In between that one and the Cashmere, he had also owned an Inspiration Yellow and a VMG. Although his Cashmere wasn't cared for nearly as well (obsessively?) as mine, he clearly enjoyed the Retrobirds.

He said he had spent some time on Dot's site, and I invited him to check this one out as well. We'll see what happens!

Elle,

Almost thought I saw you today. We were having lunch at Five Guys at Providence Square near Kempsville when a Bronze drove into the parking lot and parked WAYYYYY at the end! Thoroughly pleased hubby as he's always parking our vehicles way away from other vehicles...anyway, license plate I'm unsure of but I think it was something like "Debs D1", can't quite remember. I left a card on the window, maybe she'll join us!

Re: 2009 T-Bird sightings

I took a 50 mile drive to see a friend for 15min. He had just finished riding PALM and had to get on the bus to go back to the west side of the state. (I drove it cuz he's from D.C.) While, on M-25 north of Port Huron I saw a 007.This is the first I have seen a bird while in my bird. I got to wave and they knew why I was waving. When I parked the car to go look for John, all the little kids came running over to say wow, what a nice car, how cool, I like your car what is it. The parents were putting the bikes away and thinking 1. gas guzzler, get a smart car or 2. I'm jealous.

Re: 2009 T-Bird sightings

While heading home from Ocean City, MD on Route 1 through Delaware last Friday, saw a EB with hardtop on in either Bethany or Dewey Beach, then saw a DSB, VMG AND a Platinum Silver within about 10 minutes of each other between Rehobeth & Dover. Anybody on the site?

Sounds like he didn't spend enough time on my site. Glad you had a chat with him, Darsi. Maybe he'll check this site more often too.

Re: 2009 T-Bird sightings

Saw a nice VMG Saturday....and had lunch with its owners, Pat and Steve (1mintjulep) at Oh Bryan's in Madison! It's a nice little nostalgia family steakhouse with 50's-60's decor. Has its own "private dining room" which consists of a pink 55 Tbird and a Corvette as tables. We had invited some other TBN members as well, but they were unable to come. Snapped a couple of pics, but they did not turn out well...more in my gallery as well.

Re: 2009 T-Bird sightings

I seen two other Tbirds this morning. I was driving out in the township and noticed right away (they do stick out proudly) at a strip mall a 02 Yellow. I just had to pull over and just as I pulled up to look at it, she was just heading to her car. so, of course I had to stop and talk to her, I haven't seen a yellow 02 here in Kingston before. She must not drive it much. We got talking about how much fun these cars are to drive from any other car, and I mentioned about this website and told her about outings and the wealth of info and she could not believe that we can actually have more fun than we do know. She mentioned that she will be checking this site out.
The other one I seen, was at the Ford dealership this morning. I was there to update my computer, and noticed a 03 Mountain Shadow Grey getting an oil change. Did not see the owner there. I think an american bought Tbird for it had the fog lights and chrome rims.
I think this is the first time I seen 2 in one day while driving mine in town.

Re: 2009 T-Bird sightings

While going to a car show im Sedro Woolley in the 56 T-Bird were followed by an EB. We pulled over and got to talk a couple seconds as we were blocking the road. I think he lived in the area so I will try to look him up next time I get over there.

Re: 2009 T-Bird sightings

On June 28th, 2009 I saw two retros . I saw a silver 05 at Pioneers Park in Lincoln, NE attending a car show. I spoke with owner who is a past Nebraska Attorney General I told him about TBN.
I went to a Chevy car show near Omaha where I was dropping off our 4th of July Car show brochures you are right I saw no Birds there but I then went Council Bluffs Iowa to loose some money at a casino which I did.
But as I was pulling into the Horseshoe casino parking lot I saw another Bird, I believe it was a 02as it was yellow. This person must play cards check out the plate
