Gary Hults of New Milford didn’t intend to own his 1973 Ford Gran Torino Sport for 47 years.
“It’s one of those things I’ve often heard people say, ‘Oh, I wished I had my first car, second car I ever owned’ and when I bought it, I didn’t do that with the intention of doing that but it’s just something that happened,” he said last weekend.
It has served him well over the years, too.
The Torino wasn’t new when he purchased it on May 5, 1974.
“The car was owned by a Ford factory representative. If you look on the sticker, it’s made out to White Plains Marketing Group,” Hults said.
