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.


'68 Mustang, lived it's life in the salt of the north, felt something
one day, got out, right rear seemed to be lower than the left, open the
truck, there's one end of the right leaf spring poking through the trunk
floor!


So, you were irresponsible in the maintenance of your auto way back
then also!


You stupid buffoon, what would "maintenance" have done to keep the road
salt from eating the body up? Are you really this stupid or are you
putting on some sort of game?

My last three new vehicles have all received yearly application of
Krown Rustproofing.
It works....important since I usually keep my vehicles approx 10 years.


Actually, rusproofing is a gimmick to get your money. Probably the same
dealer that said he sold you a "truck" right?


Wrong Kevin, although the dealer's 'business manager' tried really
hard to sign me up for their version.
Krown Rustproofing has the recommendation of the Canadian Automobile
Protection Association.


I'm not Kevin, so if you want to carry on this conversation like an
adult with a brain, do so.

Now, do you realize that the dealer almost always outsources that work
to businesses just like you are talking about. Do you realize there is
no real data that suggests that it is anything more than snake oil? Do
you realize there are millions of sites telling you it just doesn't do
anything?

This guy seems knowledgeable:

"Undercoating that goes semi hard doesn't really do much and it doesn't
creep into crevices. Iv'e been rustproffing vehicles myself for over 15
years. We first tried used oil but it made such a mess, then 10W30, then
Rust Check, then Krown and now Fluid Film. I have also tried putting the
black undercoating on with a Shutz gun and it just made the truck very
hard to work on later, I didn't see any benefits. The key to
rustproofing is getting where you can't see, this includes inside body
panels, under hood and all the chassis. We spray all of our farm
equipment before it's put into storage and all of our snow equipment.
Who cares if it attracts dust. the dust and FF together actually create
a protective coating that will be washed off in the spring. How well can
you wash underneath your truck? This is actually the first fall I've
used FF but I'm just promoting rust proofing in general. FF is
competitive in price and doesn't seem to run or drip like the others. I
manged to spray over 6 gallons of bulk this fall, so for less then $10
/vehicle using bulk and less then $20/ vehicle using aerysol cans IMO
you would be stupid not to use it, taking into consideration the price
of equipment. Sorry for the long post"


This guy??
Is he an engineer or an undercoating specialist?


Can't you read, moron?

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...

http://tinyurl.com/bp3pk9c

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:

http://tinyurl.com/d2erlsx

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.
