Plymouth K-cars in solid blue (Mid-80's Gramm-Rudman era).

Subject: [MV] Base Commanders Cars

Remember in the old movies where the Base or Installation CO would drive up
in a Staff Car, usually a 4 door Chevy, Ford or Buick?
    It appears things have really slid down hill since those days. At the
Patriots Day Parade in Lexington, Mass yesterday, the CO of Hanscom AFB was
being driven around in a 2 dr Ford Taurus, blue on the bottom with a white
roof, gray velour interior. Curtis Lemay woulda nuked the Pentagon
Procurement office if they saddled him with such a ride!
    What types of Base CO's wheels have you folks seen over the years? Could
be a cheap way to gen up an MV....
