Mine IS a 1997 Mercury Villager Mini-van. I am thinking of trading it in this summer and buying a gaz guzzling SVU.

I drove a 1973 Chrysler Newport for about two weeks. Mine had the 318 in it. It would cruise and seat 12 too. We had so much fun that two weeks.

My father-in-law has a '66 Newport that still runs. I've driven it, and you're spot-on about the land boat observation-- I said the exact same thing!

I would just hate to be in the other car if it ever was involved in an accident. It doesn't exactly have crushable bumpers.

I seem to remember this ??? being asked before!
Mine was a 50-somethin' Anglia or English Ford. My Dad and I had matching ones! They were white.....looked like something a child would draw when they wanted to make a car drawing. Hey! I only paid $60.00 for it......had a great little heater for these Mi. winters......I drove it a couple years until I found a nice little VW Bug for $350.00! These were the sixties......cars had different appeal to young people back then! Almost every young guy was looking for older cars to "pep up" and sneak out on the country roads to drag race. I got pretty good at double clutching........'course that was in the '64 GTO!........p
