Classic Car Love: The 1961 Thunderbird

WOODWARD AVE - As anyone in metro Detroit knows, people in this area love their classic cars.

For many, there's a special bond, almost like a family member, that can only be described as a love affair.

Each Saturday, leading up to the Woodward Dream Cruise, we're going to highlight one car in particular, and its owner. We've chosen a number of cars that were significant to the auto industry, and spoke to people about their love for cars.

This week, we're introducing you to a 'car gal', and her 1961 Thunderbird.
