Hello! I'm new here, and just got a 1973 Ford Club Wagon a few months ago. I'm on here hoping to see what anyone else is doing with similar models, and to get a little maintenance help with different bits. Good to be here!

Maybe it is just nostalgia, but I sure love the look of that van series! Mike

It's a nostalgia that I wish I had. Born too late and living in the past!

I guess with the present the way it is, and the future not looking so great, being interested in the past is not so bad. You know what they say about nostalgia . . . nostalgia is remembering the past the way it should have been.
