    How awsome is this ? Station Wagon forums --- totally kool !!!! Found this place by accident , and saw a couple pics of some local so cal cars . So far I've noticed that station wagon owners are the koolest car people out there --- doesn't matter what make or model , they always smile and wave . :2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    Here's a pic of my 72 Ford Gran Torino Squire

    Yea wagons are the unsung heros of the auto world. Why own something everybody else has, ace the Mustangs, ditch the Cameros and pass on the Impalas, everybody has thoes .... dare to be different, own a vintage wagon , its the different or more rare things that attract people to your ride at shows or on the road. Youd never believe the remarks I get on my 1972 Dodge monaco wagon.

    :Welcome: Torinobros. Nice wagon! How often do you drive it? How long have you had it? "Inquiring minds want to know!"

    Used to drive it everyday , until about 2 years ago , when I finally bought my first ever NEW car . Drive it every now and again when I need "therapy " . I can't really remember how long I've had it ( old age LOL ) ..... I'd guess at least 8 to 10 years now . Saved it from the crusher ---- bought it outta my buddy's junkyard for $600. It's got a salvage title , but I don't care .... I'll never sell it .

    Just very recently, there was a Torino project wagon for sale on Ebay. After they showed the pix....the last pix they showed was the exact pix you are showing of your car. They used it, presumably, to show what the car should look like. Was that you selling the project wagon, torbro?

    Yeah I saw the ebay listing --- a buddy sent me an e-mail about it . I didn't wanna be an a$$ about it , but I sent them a note telling them I wasn't happy about them using my pic without my permission . I assume they "stole" the pic from my website .
