    Nice! It was worth it to get this shot!

    The photo almost looks re-touched--like you added color only to the vintage Ford. That yellow (any color, really) truly pops in a sea of grays and silvers...

    Yeah, no kidding. My sister, to be different, got a new Tiguan in "Habanero Orange." Man, does that color pop and catch your eye!

    Saw this one coming out of —guess where?! It was clean as in not dirty. That’s it. I call it well loved. Let’s just say I did you all a favor by not taking any close ups. Nice wagon:thumbs2: 88FFCA88-0E15-4381-B925-CEE0DA7E9BC1.jpeg 44C14E3E-9B76-402A-B338-BE394500539D.jpeg

    Nathaniel spotted this one going through an intersection yesterday when we were coming home from Church.
    We went to see if we could find it, and discovered it was at our local ACE store. We were heading there ourselves, but did't get there in time. He was already leaving as we arrived, so I didn't get to talk to him.
    It's a Ford/Mercury wagon, that's all I could tell.

    I guess that's a result of hanging out with me do much. I'm rubbing off on him.

    Wouldn't it be interesting to see what happens, when reverse gear is accidently selected?

    Isn't that the way a father wants it? His own 'Mini-Me?'

    Yeah, it is. Unfortunately I know he's also picking up all of the negative tidbits too...

    That old yellow Ford wagon appears to be a 1949. That's the last year the woody Ford wagon was just called a 'station wagon'. In 1950, they stuck the 'Country Squire' name on it for the first time.

    It was also the first Ford designed by committee--the Whiz Kids.
