I posted pics of my 61 2 door Ford wagon before. It's going to be awhile before it is done. I couldn't help myself and bought a 62 Mercury to drive around. I am trying to hold myself back from modifying this one.

Holy blank sheet of paper batman! That's a great looking wagon. You've gotta talk to Mike Murray, (owner of "StarWagon) you have very similar tastes and I think he's got a 61 or 62 wagon, or both, as well.

The taillights and nose of that car are great looking! Good luck!:thumbsup:

That's an awesome piece. I'm a huge Merc fan - I'm actually looking to swap a '62 Merc grille and lights into my '62 Galaxie ragtop. (It's also got a '63 Merc dash - it's a long story!)

Cool car!

Great find, Kevin! That's a killer wagon. I know what you're saying about modifying it and then watching it snowball into another massive project but all that thing needs is bags and wheels. Like I always say, wheels and stance are everything!

I love it, any thoughts on just changing the rims and tires?

I thought about just the wheels/tires. Not sure yet as the rubber needs to be tall due to the big wheel wells.

I decided not to touch it. If it doesn't sell then it's time to put some wheels on and lower it. I don't think I can last with stock wheels.

It's a very cool wagon. All it would need is wheels!
