Bring back the IH Travelall!

Doesn’t it have to be stable and viable though to be considered a new species?

Well I’m the weirdo then.... I quite liked the fox body Thunderbirds myself. Think about it, a more ‘refined’ Mustang in Thunderbird form.... I’d take it for a test drive.

Can we just stop for a moment and reflect on what a tremendous loss it was for us all to lose the perfection that was the International Harvester symbol?  THE LETTERS MADE A TRACTOR.

I do not in any way associate this car with “the ‘80's” but since Mitch said he’d go back to 1977, then there really is only one answer and as far as I’m concerned, it’s the best-looking two-door sedan ever made:

This is still my favorite factory paint scheme on any truck ever:

Only thing it’s missing is the truck nuts (nutz?) and the MAGA sticker.

I like hideaway better

It was a winner when it was introduced, and it goes out the same way, gracefully, and in great style.

There’s a lesson here about our constant need for the next shiny new thing. Especially for us car enthusiasts.

Yes.

I hear people decry the “4 door coupe”. How about some hate for the “pillared hardtop”?

I always thought it was both. It’s a turbo 6.

Can we go back to this? I hate SUVs.

Me! And everything and everyone else, top to bottom. 

It’s late 80s, I’m about 13 and already have a reputation for being the mouthy juvenile delinquent in the family. My older cousin is drop dead gorgeous and about 16. I haven’t seen my older cousin in a few years, but we were like sisters in our early childhood.
