That was my Dad’s Chrysler Cordoba. Silver exterior, maroon Corinthian leather and maroon “opera” top. Actually quite fetching at the time, or so I thought. -D > On Apr 17, 2020, at 4:13 PM, Clay via Mercedes wrote: > > I despised the combination back in the mid 1970s when it showed up in >

I despised the combination back in the mid 1970s when it showed up in Chyslers. Had a buddy with one, and a few years later a lady friend drove one as well. Just rubbed me the wrong way. clay I have no pronouns please do not refer to me. > On Apr 16, 2020, at 8:09 AM, Andrew Strasfogel
