"ole yeller"     1974 Ford Gran Torino

Introduction / Overview:

this car has been in the family since 76....was my dads first car at 15....pretty much my first car too....my dad sold the car out from under me after i moved out of state for a few months. i search 8 yrs for this car and finally i decided to put up a craigslist ad pretty much begging people for info on my car. a week later i get an email saying "i got your car...call me". called ....and sure enough went to see it and it was my baby...was sittin in a field rotten away because the guy couldnt get it started. i gave him his $700 back that he paid for it and took her home a few weeks later. i got her home cleaned her up,new plugs,wires,battery and carb and a few gallons of gasshe was running within a week......i still dont understand why he couldnt get it running.......
