    Yeah, that Caddy looks nice but in the era of newly "detuned" engines, it would barely be able to get down the road even with its 472 V8. My grandmother had one. It was pitiful compared to her 68 coupe prior.

    Actually green is considered a "unlucky" color at the race-track ... Richard Petty will attest! LOL

    My brother had a 73 wagon like that in the mid-70's ... rootbeer brown with chrome Kragers .... damn purdy car .... 6 MPG!

    ----------GREEN! The color of money, as far as I can remember............ I had a new 1972 red Gran Torino 2dr. wagon with black interior. Fuel mileage was terrible pulling an RV. I loved that wagon!
