Cal Worthington out on the town

This is just too odd and random not to post. For some reason, celebrity stalker TMZ has a clip of Long Beach's own famous Ford dealer, Cal Worthington, out on the town with two young, blond women who say in the video that they're from Iceland. Apparently, the 89-year-old Worthington is taking a page out of Hugh Hefner's book.

Worthington sings his famous TV commercial ditty, and then one of the women sings the chorus in Icelandic, before they drive off -- not in a Ford, but in a BMW driven by one of the women.

See the video here.

If you recall, Worthington's car dealership received a $600,000 loan from the city of Long Beach earlier this year to keep the business from leaving town.
