That's a great looking fairmont. And its always good to know that there is other young people allsow into muscle cars, I think its a dying breed or something because there's not a lot of guys I know my age anyway that has a muscle car more into subaru's and cars like that nowadays. And I wouldn't trade my ranch for any of those cars haha.
