Now that sure plucks the ol' heart strings. Remember that! When will kayak 
manufacturers get with the retro movement and come out with a special edition 
color: *Ford Panel Wood*. 

I can just see the ad copy:

Children of suburbia, your SUV has incredible lineage. Once, long ago, you 
were ensconced in a squared off metal dragon with fins in back and George 
Jetson headlamps. Do you remember singing *feelin groovy* by Simon and 
Garfunkel clawing out of the dashboard mounted speaker. Now you can own the 
panel yak! Its a modern sea going vessel with one improvement a six inch 
panel of real simulated mahogonyized vinyl burning a 6 inch swath down the 
gunnels. Get the hair up in a bandanna now folks because we are offering this 
Panel Yak in two exciting, new millenial colors: Ice Blue and Autumn Beige. 
Can't you smell ol' Dad's Lucky Strikes burnin' again?
