As requested, heres a couple shots of the wagon I drug home yesterday.
53 Pontiac w/ early 70's Olds 350/350. Does run and drive, but has open manifolds currently, so easier to trailer home.
All glass is perfect and like new, interior is dirty(dusty)but is mostly complete and nice. Headliner is mint.
Here it is in all it's glory http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yep, all the trim, bumpers, an extra tailgate.

I'm taking it to get exhaust one day next week, then some fresh plugs and it'll be a driver(if I choose to).

It has all the little extras, including a rear fan, original pontiac vanity mirror on pass. visor., and other stuff like that.

Thought about getting all the little stuff done, dropping it a few inches and driving her as-is for the rest of the summer http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I dig it. Good call. Don't see many of these floating around. Then again, not sure they float.

Nice "patina".
Did you have to climb thru the window? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Looks like a cool ride. I know you'll do it justice.

Did I miss something? You said there was a deal pending on the Ford, did it sell?
Looks like some real potential here for a cruiser. Will paint happen this winter or are you leaving it alone on the outside?
