I was stationed at Sheppard AFB in Wichita Falls, Tx ... there are a gazillion salvage yards in that area. I was walking through one of them and spotted a Taladaga Torino under some Mesquite trees -- and it was pretty much all there including the front end. Got done scouting the yard and went back to their office and asking them what them wanted for the Torino ... they asked which one? I said the Taladaga Torino and they wanted to know what the hell that was. I told those good old boys and they said they've never heard of those Fords. Went back to the base and told one of my friends and the next Saturday we went to look at the car again ... it was gone. Guess I should have kept my mouth shut.
