Impeccable paint colors!
My dad had one of these for years. We took an epic road trip in 78 (Taylor, Michigan-> San Salvador, El Salvador) in it.
Grew up in the older rounder version of this. It was great.
I had a 2-door one of these, just a couple years older. I could drive 60 in the snow safely on radials because it was so got-damn heavy. I poured $6000 into it before I realized it had been rebuilt one too many times (including twice by me) and was basically just a messed-up, heavy, old, underpowered piece of poo. But it taught me how to wrench, and I loved it back.
I miss my '84 245.
I had the 242 version of this, drove it from 250,000 to 300,000 miles then gave it away. Kept the 300k grille badge.
