    Everything about that car is on the money! Color, wheels, engine, I love it all. :cool:

    I am surprised nobody has mentioned "you'll never make it home running that Fram filter". :rolleyes:

    Flashback - My Dad had one of those new as a company car. He was a territory rep for a carpet mfg. His did 40k miles in 18 months (a LOT in those days) loaded to the windows with carpet samples - This followed a 61 Ford, 63 Chev, and was followed by 65 and 67 Fords. Wish I could have them all back now.

    Enjoy your new find!

    Nice wagon. I noticed that it was turning 2k rpm at 50 mph, Wow I bet it sucked up some gas on that trip. What tranny and what is the rear end gear? I put a 2004R in the C-10 with 3.73 rear end, it now runs down the highway at 70 mph at 2k rpm.

    Cool wagon, and the motor looks sweet too. Taking a road trip like that is a lot of fun, making some memories every mile! Did you buy it from an individual or a dealer?

    NICE! Love the wagons. I really like the yellow lights as well, have been tossing that idea around for awhile, I really like the look of it! Well done.
