My brother said that, whenever he stopped with the Lakewood, that women  just 
fell all over it as if it were a movie star or a cute baby...definitely a  
car that women liked <unsnip>
 
About 20 years ago, my wife and I took our '62 Twilight Turquoise 4-spd  
Monza wagon to the Monterey Historic auto races to watch the featured Ferraris  at 
the track and enjoy the Pebble Beach concours.  As Ferraris were  the 
featured cars that year, there were hundreds and hundreds of  them running all over 
town.  Jan and I drove into the parking  lot at a local eatery to discover 
about 3 dozen lovely old Ferraris; their  owners already in the parking lot, 
milling about.  Imagine our surprise  when virtually everyone in the parking lot 
crowded around the Monza wagon and  began peppering us with questions and 
accolades!  That was a moment to  remember.

P.S. Paul Pederson purchased the car from me and took it to Seniors level  in 
CORSA concours and added K-H wire wheels.  Eric Eberhard (frequent VV  
poster) now owns the car.
