    My 73 Ford wagon was assembled at the Ford plant in Norfolk VA according to it's Marti Report. 4 days later it was sold at Keeter Ford in Shelby NC. I've put about 200+ miles on her this week.

    :cheers::birthday::blowhorn:Hillybillyhipster's 73 Ford wagon. May it live a happy life forever, needing only minor tune ups and remaining far from junkyards everywhere. :cheers:

    Happy Birthday to the old girl. It is funny, but I did a Happy Birthday thread for Ma's 1990 Volvo just an hour ago. Arthur was 23 yesterday.

    Sold 4 days after assembly, that's quick! My F150 was built at Norfolk.I believe Ford has shuttered that plant now though.
