When the Cargill's passed the car was bought at auction by relatives (The Goss's). The Goss Family (currently restoring the car) can remember their Uncle Dick and Izzy filling the car with airplane fuel and running the car briskly up and down the runway. (Dick was a pilot.) First restoration steps were to get the car to stop again, (brakes).  Next will be fuel and carberation, followed by a general fixing and ironing out of all the little querks here and there.  Finally followed by some fresh paint." 1968 Ford Thunderbird Fordor Landau Owner: Jim Strebe "This is the car we call Christine, it is a '68 four door 429. This is almost the exact condition it was in when I bought it.  I have completely rebuilt the suspension. Other than that it's the way she came.  This is yet unconfirmed but I was told that she used to be a test bed car for the design of the new Lincolns. It still has some antilock brake test equipment installed on it.  It has no options other than shoulder belts, power steering and rear window blower.  This car likes to crash into Mopars when you're not watching (hence the name Christine)." Sharp ride, and a great looking photo! Ford could have used this shot in their original ads... 1968 Ford Thunderbird Tudor Landau (modified) Owner: George Pauline This California car was first sold in January 1968 at Patterson Ford in Patterson, California.
