Classic Car News: Grease Is The Word
There have been many classic cars featured in films throughout the years, including the 1966 Thunderbird Convertible, which saw Thelma and Louise hit the open road in 1991, the 1966 Chevy Corvette Sting Ray in the 1999 film Austin Powers and perhaps the most famous of them all the 1948 Ford De Lux "Greased Lightning" car in the 1977 film Grease. Popular amongst men and women alike the Ford De Lux, really deserves credit for being "one of the most memorable classic cars in the movies", according to HubPages.com.
Combining an angelic sleek appearance with devilish good looks and innovative design helped the classic Ford to seduce both movie and car fans worldwide. Cars have to have a certain appeal to attract both male and female viewers, with the Telegraph website reporting that "men might dribble on about top speeds and depreciation values, but they really buy motors to boost their level of attractiveness".
Mel Gibson was lucky enough to find out What Women Want in the 2000 film starring Helen Hunt as his female screen partner, but it needn't be an accident that enables men to find out what women really want - it just takes a little observation. The Telegraph website has reported that "women are less likely to be seduced by horsepower and high-tech tricks. The attributes that most women want from a car are safety, reliability and value".
To win the adoration of women, as well as the security and reliability features, cars have to be of a certain vintage, be sexy and have the ability to go fast (even if they don't utilise it), which means they must be classics. There are many websites dedicated to female motor enthusiasts such as Greasergrrls.com, who have the motto "whether you dig classic cars or just like getting your hands dirty, Greasergrrls.com has got to be your next stop", that provide an online community to share their views on anything car related. Marilyn Monroe made famous the belief that Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend in the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, which is why women certainly know how to appreciate the quiet sophistication and beauty of the classic car.
"It's got over head lifters and some four barrel quads, a fuel injected cut-off and chrome plated rods. With a four-speed on the floor, they'll be waiting at the door", are the words used to describe the Ford De Lux in Grease, and perhaps best describe the primary attributes this classic car possesses.
