    Thanks bought it from a friend who bought it in 1979 from the original owner. He’s 84 now and doesn’t drive it much. He knows my love of station wagons, so he gave me a good deal, and about another 1/2 car in parts. His biggest fear was that someone would take out the 6 and drop a crate motor in it.

    I remember a guy using a '57 Nomad like that years ago. It killed us to see it. We would had followed him to see if he would sell it, but we didn't have our licenses yet, lol.

    That is niiiiiiiice. I love the GT/CS. I absolutely prefer this model to the ones that came after. Probably my favorite body style of the modern Mustangs. Congrats.

    Thank Jeremiah. I bought it cause I knew the man that has owned it since 1979, it’s a great car, and really fun to drive.

    Brockway, Pennsylvania a few months ago (May, I think)

    1989 Chevy Caprice Classic (again; previously seen on Page 8.)
    ???? Volvo. This Volvo was parked on the other side of the street from where the Caprice was parked.

    More modern cars from other dates in the last few months... Volvo, Volkswagen, and Volvo again.

    Also, I had this photo of a 1930s / 1940s Panel Truck or Sedan Delivery. I'm not sure what it is, but the photo's at least a year old.

    Finally, I saw this 80s Ford Country Squire in Dubois, PA in Early to Mid June. I stopped at the red light just in time to take a right turn behind them, on the start of my way home.

    We spotted this one a couple of weeks ago. It was in a hotel parking lot and we were headed out of town for the weekend. I expected it would be gone by the time we came back, but it wasn't. They must be here on an extended stay because it's still there.

    Looks like it's a 68, but I'm a little fuzzy on these, so I can't say for certain.

    Yup, it's a '68.................
    With a little bit of time, money and manual labor, that can be turned into a very nice wagon......

    It’s an ‘86-‘87. Center mount stop light was ‘86, and it has the extended front bumper. One of those two years. I think your panel truck is a ‘46-‘47, but definitely a Chevrolet.
