Gry Stordahl's memory lane, cars from the past

	1968 Mercury Montclair It's a rare car with the late year optional Marquis style roof. Bought it with the intention to keep it, but changed plans. Owned from summer 2008 to spring 2009
	1970 Mercury Cougar XR-7 Convertible, also named "Goldie" This is a sweet cat, fully optioned and with a dark brown leather interior it had everything I wanted. The powerful 351 Cleveland 4V engine made this a fast car and it is probably one of the funniest cars I have driven. Bought it winter 2007, sold in the fall 2008
	1970 Cougar std coupe. Here is another one I should have kept, but I did not realize how nice it was before it was too late and I had promised someone that I would sell it. It was a totally original California car with a mint interior. This is one of the cars that barely put its tires on my ground before it went away again.
	1949 Merury 8 coupe. This is probably the car I should never have bought. It looked so nice in picures, but it sure had some surprises waiting for me. I did not want to spend all the time and money restoring it to the condition I like, so I decided to take a huge loss and let her go to someone else with more interest in these old cruisers than I have.
	1959 Mercury Park Lane convertible I owned this car from 1999 til 2007. It went through an extensive restoration process from 2000 to 2005 You can see the pictures from the restoration here
	1969 lincoln Mark 3 I bought this car as a fixer upper with the engine in pieces in the trunk, fixed it and sold it. These cars are nice drivers, but they just can't make my heart beat faster. Had it from the winter 2007 to the fall same year.
	1978 Mercury Marquis 2d (Grandma') I bought this car in Michigan and had it in Indianapolis, IN for a year, then moved her to Norway where I decided to let her go to a better home in 2006.
	1968 Mercury Cyclone 390 what a nice car. This has the most beautiful body lines that the late 60's could offer.
	1966 Mercury Park Lane convertible bucket seat. I bought this car in 1998 in Indanapolis and drove it almost 4000 miles in the US on my vacation before it was shipped back to Norway. I had no intention to sell it, but ended up doing so anyway. I still regret it. It is a nice car with a lot of soul.
	1961 Mercury Monterey convertible. This is the car that started my facination for Mecury. I Bought it at age 16, restored it and sold it 4 years later. It had a 352 engine, multidrive transmission, power steering and power brakes. I had a lot of fun with this car. When I last saw it in the summer of 2008 it still had the same paint job as I gave it back in 1980. This car was used in the Norwegian movie "Julia, Julia" and has been presented in car magazines in Norway and Sweden.
	1968 Mercury Marquis Denne bilen kjøpte jeg sammen med faren min på en bilauksjon i Arizona. Jeg hadde vel håpet at han hadde ønsket å beholde bilen, men da han syntes den ble for stor å kjøre endte jeg litt ufrivillig opp med den. Bilen ble derfor solgt etter å ha vært i mitt eie ca 6 mnd i 2003.
