Lucille is a 1972 Ford Country Sedan wagon with a 400ci Cleveland small-block, a three-speed automatic, three rows of blue vinyl seats, and 18 feet of pre-Malaise, Coke-bottled, hub-capped, LBJ-approved, pseudo-ironic beauty.
In 1971, it was the pride and joy of its namesake, a Lucille B. Riley of Thousand Oaks, California, who on her 55th birthday treated herself to a brand-new car. She held onto it for nearly 30 years.
