History
This car was my old man's, and it mostly sat in his backyard. I traded a 1990 Pontiac Sunbird LE for it straight across in 2003, when the LTD only had 76k on it. My old man was the second owner, and the car had been purchased locally and garaged by the original owner. I have since done my best to beat the hell out of it, but always with love. I was hit by a semi tractor in 2006, and stored the car for almost 4 years till I could get the body work done on it. It's still a work in progress as I try to fix what's worn out while improving the performance and appearance.
