One of the world's great actors Ricardo Montalban has died. He was a man who truly knew how to live. Just watch this classic ad he did for the Chrysler Cordoba (lol) and you will see what the world has lost!

Are you sure you wanted to provide us a link to your hotmail account? ;) (Don't worry, we have to know your username and password to get access. In other words, your link doesn't work.)

I've fixed it since users still can't edit their opening posts. Sigh.

Thank Michelle. You have to admit that is a real classic 70s ad. Isn't Montalban just what we all aspire to be?? (sic.)
As long as i can have my "soft Corinthian leather" - I will be happy!

I remember watching "The Wrath of Khan" when I was in high school and just NOT being able to be afraid of Khan, due to the "Corinthian leather" line as well as "good to the last drop" that echoed in my brain as Ricardo M associations.
P.S. Cordoba was "the small Chrysler"??? Did you see the size of that boat?

I thought the same thing. That "small" Chrysler is the size of hearse!

My mother had an even bigger Chrysler, a 1970s Newport, with a trunk large enough to fit a VW Beetle, similar to this one, but hers was a puke green:
I drove the beast between Barrie and Orillia a few times. It had a 400+ ci engine, with quite good acceleration for a car that size. I think it got about 15 mpg. Notice the car's length is exactly the same as the distance between two parking meters.

You're easily pleased. "Soft Corinthian leather" exists nowhere except on an advertising writer's note pad.
