I was born in 1951. So I remember the time when station wagon vehicles were the main vehicle for a large family. Over the years my parents owned four station wagon vehicles. One of them was a 1964 Ford Country Sedan with the 352 cubic inch V8 and a four barrel carburetor and dual exhaust and the cruise-o-matic automatic transmission. In my young years I thought this station wagon was quite powerful. So I also remember the era of muscle car vehicles where more power meant a large displacement powerful V8 naturally aspirated, overhead valves, pushrod V8 engine, that was very gasoline thirsty. This was the era before fuel economy regulations. Starting in the early 1970s the early smog control regulations started to dramatically decrease the power of these V8 engines.
My first car was a 66 Lemans wagon in lite green metallic with the 326... Who'd a thunk it would ever be worth much, loved that car. Thanks for the share, take care.
