1972 Ford Torino Station Wagon review from North America
"Great Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A flat tire near the Grand Canyon in the summer of 75.
General comments?
WOW!!! What a great car, reliable, comfortable, lots of space, surprising power. My parents bought the "Jolly Green Giant" in the spring of 72 - kept it until 1980. Loved that car - always reliable, never let us down. I drove the car in high school - may not have been the coolest car, but oh the memories!!!
