Hi all, After a Buick Estate wagon 1996 and a Chrysler 300C 2005 5.7V8 AWD (european Magnum), i switch to another wagon, older, w/o electronics, catalytic, fuel injection or other "modern parts": I bought a '70 Ford Country Squire ! I live in SW France, a city named Pau near Pyrénées mountains. i owned US cars since 1985, the Ford is the 7th in the list. First was a Ramcharger and today i kept only the car i restored during 7 years, a '57 Imperial convertible. I'm also president of a US car club: AmeriSud. The Country Squire isn't still at home, i'll get it in the first weeks of january, so the pics i post are from its actual location (North of France). The car needs a paint and new "wood" because the old vinyl was 'painted" with a dark stain. The mouldings need also a better paint ... The interior (red) is in great conditions. Mill is the 390 ci. The only option is the A/C (and AM radio !).
Welcome to the forums Graecomania! Sounds like you have owned some cool autos. If you get a chance post some pictures of your longroof and your other ones too! We LOVE pictures around here!
“Pau near Pyrénées mountains” I love a good excuse to break out the globe! Welcome! We can’t see the pics!
