yeah!  and my favorite Bond film.....even tho' it still hurts every time
I see the Continental going into the crusher  (saw Goldfinger when new
at the State Theater in downtown Cleveland --- remember 1st run movie
houses?)  anyway, just knew that Lincoln was headed to the crusher - and
it did.****

and used to hope they'd use an Avanti in a Bond film  (back when I was
naive and didn't know the car companies pay for their cars to be used).
but after all, Fleming had one, didn't he?  can you see an Avanti being
driven on two wheels like the Mustang in Diamonds are Forever?    The
Aston's chariot wheel hubs would have been a natural for a
Stude......."Shaken, not stired........flanged, not tapered."  Instead
of  having to melt down the fenders on Goldfingers Phantom III......an
Avanti would just overheat itself, then burst into flame until there's
nothing left but the gold.........arggggg.

*****more OT....going to a decent movie house.....one with a big screen
and clean floors....good sound.....no cellphones or people yakking.
you could wait for a movie to come to the neighborhood theaters --- but
seeing it a 1st run house was the big deal for a Saturday night date.
for Goldfinger, we even did the dinner thing.....cant remember who she
was....but vividly recall that when we came out, there was a Facel-Vega
Excellence waiting at the curb.  gosh, that alone was worth the $2 cost
of the movie
