What are your thoughts about the results? Very few surprises at the top (in
my opinion). I was surprised by the Tucker and '64 Plymouth. I did not
know these were prized by Forward-lookers. Thanks to all who participated.
If you are disappointed your favorites were not listed and you did not vote,
too bad. You must wait until the 2000 Forwardlook top ten list, next year.
If you want me to send you the excel file with all the tallying, e-mail me
directly. Thanks, Robert
