Red Grant ◊ 2008-01-08 01:27	That is the biggest redneck ever!
rjluna2 ◊ 2008-01-08 02:16	That looks like Fox platform.
rjluna2 ◊ 2008-01-08 02:21	That looks like the same car at /vehicle_148076-Unknown.html .

Julian ◊ 2008-01-08 14:42	jettalover wrote Sadly there was briefly a Cougar wagon. Remember that same wagon was sold as the Fairmont, Zepher, Cougar, Granada, Marquis and LTD, all with only minor differences to the front clip? Dark period in American auto industry.
