Elvis Presley Animated Spy Series a Go at Netflix

Netflix is adding the King of Rock 'n' Roll to its roster of animated series.

The streamer has ordered an adult animated show called Agent King, which imagines Elvis Presley trading his white jumpsuit for a jet pack as he's inducted into a secret government spy program to help battle dark forces that threaten the country he loves — all while holding down his day job as the most famous rock 'n' roll star on the planet.

A lot has been written about the truly magnificent success stories credited to Lee Iacocca. But like all extremely successful businessmen, there is always at least one spectacular failure. For Lee it would be his decision to cut a deal enabling Maserati to be a Chrysler brand. This resulted in the Chrysler TC by Maserati, a $600 million loss for Chrysler.

No - I'm not familiar with that one.

Visually they are not that much different from the 63 Grand Prix.

He sued Ferrari for not selling him a new one, can't remember if it was an FXX or La Ferrari or another? We go to the Swap Shop every few months to cruise the flea market area and do some cologne and perfume shopping, etc. Preston Henn made a boat-load of money off that place but passed away a couple years ago. If you're in the area, I recommend going to see whatever of his cars are on display there as he had some amazing exotics.

My favorite post cars, 64-65 GTO's. Not so great on 66-67 GOAT's.
