It's not my main vehicle, but in 1985 I bought a used '76 Ford Grenada that I still own and drive. With 225k miles on it, the most work I have to put into itin the past ten years or os is changing oil and plugs. A headlight went out three years ago, but that's been the extent of any major repairs since the water pump replaced in the mid-nineties.
