1973 Torino Tribute Restoration

That's a good upgrade! Thanks for sharing.

 

Thank you Gentleman...I have come to really enjoy this hobby and this wagon.

 

Hey Guys just wanted to share this past weekends outing with you. A couple weeks ago they announced that the Texas State Fair was cancelled because of the COVID 19 pandemic. Well that meant that a State Fair staple wouldn't be had, but Fletcher's Corny Dogs decided they would do pop-up sites throughout the metro-plex so we could still get our corny dog fix.

This past Saturday Gas Monkey Garage was hosting the event so we loaded up the wagon and took a drive out to get a corny dog and possibly take a few photos. Low and behold Richard Rawlings, the owner and star of the Fast and Loud show, came out from his private party to take a look at the wagon and even offered to purchase it. He was a real nice guy and even posed for a few photos with my son and I. Granted the guy is in the business of buying and selling cars, but I thought it was cool that he came out to take a look and ask questions about my wagon's history.

Here are few photos:

 

that is some cool stuff ! Thanks for sharing some "good" things that have happened this year.

 

I agree with DanR63! That is super cool Thanks for sharing.

 

Thanks Guys....I agree, this year has been crazy, but we have to count our blessings every chance we can. Stay safe!

 

Yes indeed!

That is awesome. You've got a great looking wagon, he knows his stuff, it's no wonder he came over to have a look.

 

Thank you very much!

 

Hey Guys its been a while since I have posted, but I hope everyone is doing well. I went out to a show this past weekend and snapped a few photos of the wagons there. Enjoy!

 

Long time no see Guys....I can't believe how time has just flown by. Just wanted to share a couple photos of the wagon visiting FORDS Garage, its a restaurant near me, a couple months ago.

 

The Torino's looking good! That last photo, the wagon did need a smidge of illumination on the camera side, but otherwise, a very neat pic! I bet the restaurant owner is a Ford Fanatic, they even made sure the exterior lighting was blue!

I googled Ford's Garage Restaurant, and three locations came up; which location were you?

 

Good to hear from you gpd. Nice photos, thanks for sharing them.

 

I agree...the lighting was pretty dark behind the restaurant that night and my old timey cell phone camera wouldn't illuminate like the newer ones do...

But we were at the Plano, TX location. I highly recommend going there. It was a very nice experience.

 

I'm in New Braunfels, between San Antonio and Austin, but I have family in Frisco, so I'll have to roll up there with my '79 Ranchero.
