Cool Pictures. Gotta love the one photo of Ford's lineup for 1973. The Gran Torino, Maverick, and LTD. How times have changed.

AWESOME. Saw lots of 59's in there.
We actaully have a Ford dealership here in little Ovid NY that has been in the same family since 1909.
My father in law has a Model A pick up in original condition that was bought there new.
Fortunatley Ford didn't have their head up there a** and close down old fammily dealerships like Chrysler did.
There was a Dodge dealership here in Ithaca NY that had been in the same family since 1914-15 and Chrysler yanked their franchise. It was the second oldest franchise in the nation.
I sold my Dodge pickup and I will never buy another Mopar again.
Always looking for Ithaca Gun and Lucky Sam soda items!!!
