a little graveyard/horror story.. with pictures Reply #1 – April 03, 2012, 04:24:39 PM Second photo: Judging by the lack of a turn signal lamp immediately above the bumper, it's a Torino Talledega. That sucker is rough though.There was a fairly rough one for sale about 2 years ago up in Omaha. Missing major components, don't know what ever happened to it. There's also one in a farmers machine shed about 100 miles northwest of here, and I keep rumors of another one that was roaming around the general area about 10 years back. Quote Selected

a little graveyard/horror story.. with pictures Reply #7 – April 03, 2012, 06:31:25 PM The junkyards around here suck. I never see anything cool when i go. I've gone 3 times in the last 2 weeks and the only mustangs were sn95 v6s. Not one fox car of any kind. My friend that i go with always makes out because there's always tons of chevy pickups and i always leave empty handed. Quote Selected

a little graveyard/horror story.. with pictures Reply #10 – April 04, 2012, 12:55:36 AM Does the Country Squire have a Thunderbolt hood scoop?My Grandfather has a semi-restored '62 Thunderbird, a '67 Nova Wagon and a few C-10 Chevy's. My Dad gave me his '53 210 Sedan as a lifetime project, it was his first car(I6 with a three on the tree). He has a '70 Chevelle SS 396 as his baby.The car I really want to restore is a '55 Willys Sedan my Grandfather bought at Auction almost 20 years ago. He bought it right after a restoration and parked it. It is such a neat little car and I have never seen one like it, let alone find hardly any info online about it. Quote Selected
a little graveyard/horror story.. with pictures Reply #11 – April 04, 2012, 01:25:33 AM I noticed the hood on the wagon too. It also has lincolin wheels. I was going to say cyclone for the second pic too. My uncle had one that year back in the day. I wish I were closer and had a few bucks to play with. Quote Selected

The Cyclone, Fairlane, and Mustang are saveable depending on what the engine code is. i'd like to.. it's been there for a while and hasn't been touched.. there's not a single piece missing from it, except some grill screws LOL we'll see how the monetary situation looks in the next couple months.. i've been eying that car up since november when i first saw it.. as for the cyclone, fairlane and blue bird, all 302's.. mustang has an I6.. the only 2 of those i'd show true interest in are the CS and cyclone.. fairlanes and mustangs of those body styles are a little too common for my project likingQuote from: cougrrr302;385954Does the Country Squire have a Thunderbolt hood scoop? good eye, yes it does.. it just adds to the 'coolness factor' lolQuote from: 1Bad88tbird;385962I noticed the hood on the wagon too.

I wish I were closer and had a few bucks to play with. so many times, i've cruised through this part of the yard and saw things i wanted to play with.. but until now, i really never got too serious about any of them.. i really want that wagon lol.. i would even repaint it a similar color, too.. probably add a little candy for the extra 'wow factor' to go along with the lowered stance.. that would make 1 hell of a sweet cruiser with a big, lopey cam for that mean sounding idle Quote Selected
