Pete, I stumbled across a cruise-in Saturday evening in west Durham. Being a Ford guy, I got really excited when I saw a 1969 428CJ Torino GT coupe, but then I walked around to the other side of the restaurant and saw the support vehicle of my dreams! A 1964 Ford Country Sedan. (Not one of those gaudy Country Squires that Shultz dreams about.) This one originally had a 390, but now sports a 428 with 3 two-barrel carbs. And the Cragar Eliminator mags are a nice period touch.

I found this photo of it on their club's website

Please, please do not suggest retrofitting it with a turbodiesel. :lol:

Pete, Ford had a 406 V8 in the early sixties, before they brought out the 427. Let's try to narrow down the year of the car you saw. Thanks to planned obsolescence, they're easy to tell apart:
