Uh, cut it?

Seconded. Even on a 1,920x1,080 screen it completely messes up all the formatting with LJ.

Thirded. Awesome rig, but please resize?

Not entirely sure about how to resize the pic.
Just getting into digital pushed a lot of film through my Nikons in the past.
Will look into modifying the image and reposting it.

Kinda cool - but I never undersrood the whole fake-wood-panelling thing 'stateside estate-cars/ranch-wagons persisted with for decades after the rest of the world stopped building "woodies" using actual wood.

I have always guessed it was probably just a desperate attempt to draw in the aging generation trying to recapture their youth, kind of like how they do the retro design thing these days to try and rekindle feelings in folks that are old enough to afford the expensive toys. Then again I can't even begin to figure out how the hell fake wood paneling, aka vinyl wood stickers made it all the way into the 80s before people realized how terrible the idea was anymore.

That's a classic beast :)

I miss "wing" windows lots, wish those would come back, but that's not gonna happen any time soon...

I assume that has the 3rd rearward facing seat in the back back?

The third row is actually two seats facing each other.

Gorgeous!

I like that you kept the stock hubcaps

The car is totally stock she had some work done maybe 15 years ago freshened the paint and wood siding. The only thing that isn't factory is a 620 cfm autolite 4 barrel carb and duel exhaust.
