    Very nice. I'm puzzled by the fact that car has every option except front disc brakes. Why? The original owner had no intention of ever stopping?

    I really dig that first picture, just something so "stately" about it.

    Beautiful wagon for sure. Nice job. I'm lovin those hideaway headlights. Did it come from the factory with the 427?
