MY CAR!!!!

I love old station wagons!

Up here those old Ford wagons were no match for the salty sea air
and
the tons of rocksalt spread on our streets and roads each winter.

yeah, Before i retired it, My 1990 Colony Park was showing severe
signs of body cancer especially on the metal right behind the back
tires and along the rocker panels.

---------------------------------------------------

In the early 80's I had a 1972 Ford Country Squire wagon. I put my
foot on the rear bumper one day to tie my sneaker and the bumper fell
off in the driveway. My father-in-law also had one of similar
vintage for a while. One spring we were working on his boat in the
boatyard, getting it ready for launching. We drove to a gas station
and filled up about six, five gallon gas cans to fuel up the boat.
We put them in the wagon with the rear seats folded down to make room.
Couldn't shut the rear doors because the whole car had deformed due to
the weight of the gas cans.

The early 70's were not the best years for Ford or any other American
manufacturer for that matter.

I grew up riding in the back of a mid-60's Country Squire with picture
of wood exterior. That thing was a tank.

I only recall one "contemporary" station wagon in our family before I
left for college...

Ours was silver, with a three speed on the floor and a "slant six"
engine. My mom drove it around for years.

We had older station wagons in the family, all 1948-49 jeep vehicles.

Like this:

But ours never had the "woody" side trim.

If that had a three on the floor, it was because someone put it there.
That car came with a three on the tree or a pushbutton auto.

Ours had a three speed on the floor. It might have been a '61 instead of
a '62 in that photo. Your post, by the way, is a perfect example of why
hardly anyone posts specific boating posts here...because assholes like
you nitpick everything, even the inconsequential.

The truth is the truth.

The truth? I didn't say the photo in question was the car we had. In
fact, I pointed out ours was a different color. You get off on
nit-picking the inconsequential because you really don't have a damned
worthwhile idea to post, ever. You're like a vampire mosquito, moving in
to suck out a drop of blood whenever you can. No wonder you claim to be
unmarried. No decent woman would go out on a second date with you.

A different color makes it have a three on the floor??? And a 61 will
still have a three on the tree. You lied, again, and you know it, that's
why the low life vile lies and insults. I'm not married by CHOICE you
moron. Some people have different ideas about what life should be about
than you. Therein lies your problem. You think that if you don't like
something, anybody that should is stupid, or some-such. Then if you like
something and someone else doesn't, same thing. What a narrow minded
twit you are.

Please. I am sure you can google up Valiant station wagons from that era
that came from the factory with a three speed on the floor. You've
already demonstrated your stupidity...no need to keep doing it.

Bull****. Show me, then.
