Hello, I am new to online forums and just found my mom’s 72 Gran Torino station wagon in a barn where it’s been sitting since 1981. I am pulling it out tomorrow (with my 81 year old dad supervising). Just wanted to meet y’all and have a group to share this restoration with.

Glad to be here. Dad sold the car and delivered it in 81. The new owner never moved it after dad dropped it off. I will share some pictures when I figure out how to post them. Only original part missing is the RF fender. It was removed after an accident in 1980.
