    hard to say. middle of town so couldn't be a trap. maybe somebody's dog went after it?
    i saw it was limping and stopped to watch it for a second. figured if it was recently injured it may need to be put down as it could become aggressive. but he was just hobbling along using his tail as a rudder for balance so whatever happened to it must have been a while ago and its getting along just fine. you can see the path its worn perpindicular to the walking trail as it was going across the way to munch on some trees and then back into the creek

    One thing I miss about a "thick" snowfall from living in PHX ... the deep quiet from the snow absorbing all sound.

    I'll be happier when if we get it up a couple feet. If I get snowed in, I'll just call for the road grader.

    Don't think so. IF it's a Ford it's earlier than that. But there were some foreign cars that had a tail light and fin like that. Late fifties?

    I'm going to say this is a one step up Customline model by the evidence there was a single stripe of chrome trim on the side. The base model Mainline had none and the upper Fairlane had more.

    The profile of the fin is thinner and more angled out on the 57.

    There's always got to be one of them in every thread!


    I thought ford to, but look closer at the second pic, ford tail lites were bigger & didn't stick out like that.
