RIP.
When I read the news blurb, in mentioned Fantasy Island, but nary a mention of KHAN. Best role!

Re: R.I.P. Ricardo Montalbon
I had a '76 Cordoba with a "lean-burn-engine" (burned leaded gas with low emissions). It was a great car for the highway with a very comfortable ride. Had a 400 ci or 6.55 litre engine (which meant it would pass everything but a gas station). I think I got 11 mpg.
If I remember right, back in the late '70s, gas was around 70 cents per gallon.
It didn't have Corinthian leather though, but soft velor.

Re: R.I.P. Ricardo Montalbon
the outfit he wore for 'Rath of Khan' was designed to take advantage of the fact that he still looked great with no shirt on (at 60-ish).
