Wow, I remember Marion Ford. When I was a teenager my Dad's Town Car had the water pump go out on the way home from KY and had it fixed there. Must have been a weakness with the 351 because two years later it went out again when we were in Branson.

When I was at SIU I used to walk up to Vogler Ford in Carbondale when they were on the strip and look at all the new cars and get brochures. I actually won a car from them at a Saluki baseball game. I had the choice of taking the car or taking $100. I took the money. That should tell you how good the car was!
