The Chrysler Cordoba was actualy a shit-box. Under powered, floatey suspension, to big to be a sporty car too small to be a luxury car. The only good thing about them was the commercials with Ricardo Mantleban talking about how sophisticated men apreaciate the finer things like "Corinthian Leather" and stereophonic 8-track hi-fidelity audio. Probably one of the funniest commercials of the 70s. And yes, Oscar Goldman drove a Cordoba.

Rich corinthian leather
What Car back then was not a Shit Box, To BIG with Floater Suspension?
I think you forgot that amazing loose response steering
But if you actually saw the cars from back then they were BIG! Even a car once thought small like a Gremlin or an AMC pacer. Go up to it now it is a really big car that takes up allot of room

Jethro was the nephew of Jed Clampett, a poor Ozark Hillbilly.
Jed while hunting for food in his swamp missed his target and struck the ground with his shot. Up through the ground came a bubblin' crude, Oil that is, Black Gold, Texas Tea.

It is Cheesy but Classic
Look at how many people like the old star treks, and why cheesy special affects monster costumes etc.
I have even caught you young Wrestler voters watching old star treks.

Anyone remember The Rat Patrol ? It was huge when I was in public school ... here's a link ... scroll down to the Monday night listings and click away for a slice of memorabilia ...
... and yes I did watch the six million dollar man back in the 70's - guess that makes me as old as ChloeCrofts mom !

Any of you guys remember the Six Million Dollar Man action figures? They were big - about a foot tall. I had them all, including Oscar Goldman, complete with tweed jacket. Can you imagine what that would be worth on Ebay today? I also had some robot guy named Maskatron (sp?) who could change his face to look like Oscar or Steve and you could push buttons on him that would make his limbs go flying. Careful with that one - you'll shoot your eye out.
