Looks like the one I found not too long ago, knowing my luck, it probably is the same one.

Yeah, that's definitely the same car.Β Cool!Β I saw it at Macungie (their big show is in two weeks - you should go!) two years ago.Β Good to know it's still around!

Hmm that one with the almost German sounding name, when's the date? May try to schedule off for it then.

That's the one!Β August 4-6.Β Well worth it - just search my gallery for 'Macungie' and you'll see what I mean.

Well I will keep that in mind, try to get off for that if I can.

He isn't the only one. Beautiful example of a rare find.

Much better than the bloated sedans of today.

The LTD Country Squire or whatever this is was a type of car that I admire.
It's not ashamed of its size.
Car companies believe we no longer have any need for big cars, so modern full-size cars are like 300lb undergrad girls trying to crowbar themselves into a pair of skinny jeans.

The rumors are true. So, so, true.
That is one wicked ass wagon. I absolutely love how these look without the woodgrain panels and the ditch lights. That's two less water traps. Makes for much cleaner flanks too- you can really see the pinstripes now. Wonder if this one had the tow package. Easy giveaway is a dual exhaust system dumped beneath/near the bumper corners. More subtle is the alphabetic axle code instead of a numeric axle code. I believe the 8th digit of the VIN denotes this. Interesting choice of wheels and hubcaps too- I see some '60s street machine vibe there.
Is that a for sale sign?

Nope, that's the tag in the window for the car show with the owner's name & city, and the year, make, & model of car.
I shot four Panthers yesterday amongst all three divisions and four body styles.

Ah, for the entry in the show.Β
Oh yeah! Looking forward to seeing those. Speaking of panthers, the white '91 LTD Crown Victoria LX I was looking at earlier is apparently back up for sale. And it's cheaper than ever. $250 for a mostly rust-free Florida car that runs and drives okay is a screamin' deal. Hope to have it in my possession by next weekend!

Yeah, that's an incredible deal.Β And even if it turns out the car is junk, it's worth more than that in parts.Β Good luck!Β Hopefully you get it before one of the derby guys.

I'm saving the pre-purchase once-over and feel-around video I recorded earlier today.... let's just say it was a good deal better than I expected!
Will put the link in the journal entry description once the video's uploaded. And there's no way this '91 is going to the demo derby folk. Mainly because it's not parked outside a wrecking yard. That helps a lot! And also because the owner really wants it to go to a good home. Someone that'll fix it up, build it up, and keep it up.Β
