The refresh in 1973 gave it a chunkier look that, along with those 1974 bumpers, made for a much heavier look overall. The '72 was much better looking.

Learned to drive on a manual at age 15 and of the 31 cars I've owned, 14 have been manuals, including a '69 VW KG with Autostik, a seriously bad transmission. 50/50 mix currently in my garage.

This first generation of the Panther platform Town Cars was by far best looking, IMO. It embodied the early 1960s design themes far better than subsequent generations. Wish I had room for one.

As I recall, an unusual feature of the Fox was its longitudinal FWD powertrain setup. I also recall thinking the 2-door wagon was really slick. On the Eos: I didn't fully appreciate cowl shake until I had a chance to ride in one.
