The car of the day: 1967 Ford Country Sedan, one of 206 equipped at the factory with a 428 Cobra Jet engine. You know, for when you just HAD to have a 428 for your "grocery getter.”

@BrianJopek That's one of those cars you'd take up north in the middle of the night to see if you could get across Wyoming in less than two hours.
@BrianJopek
Dang, lucky my grandma never got one of those. When I was about 8, I traveled with her from WI back to NW Iowa for her sister's funeral. She got mad at me when I told her sisters that she had passed every car she got behind (2 lanes most of the way), but it was true. Chevy Bel Air wagon, iirc.
@BrianJopek Those were the days. Early 70’s and going to the drag races with friends. Real drag strip, not Lake Ave at night. The was a white Chevy station wagon with that fake wood paneling racing in the Z Stock class. ( Lowest and slowest of the stock classes ) They did pretty well i think.
@BrianJopek Used for “(Making the Run to) Gladewater” those beers aren't going to fetch themselves.
