I would love to find a decent 1973 Ford Galaxie 500 4-door sedan! Pluses would be a 351C 4bbl, dual exhausts, light green paint with green vinyl upholstery. Not only did it bring home my 1975 RCA 19" B&W set I bought with cash at Luskins (and still works with a DTV box on it), but I have a very sentimental reason for wanting one.

Yes, I know about Thomas Wolfe.

And, the Pinto was a very bad car. Including my '74 wagon. (2.3L engine, Auto box, AM radio, and A/C. Turning on the A/C saved a lot of brake wear.) I think many of them were recycled into cans for "Scotch Buy" beer.
