    No, it has a 302 with 2 barrel carb, with C4 trans. Mileage isn't that great, but I changed the carb a month ago and need to recalculate. I was only getting about 15 mpg average. Could be due to my lead foot, too. I also put a new Flowmaster dual exhaust system on it from the manifolds to the rear outlets, which may help the mpg.

    I'll bet after a quick scrub down that wagon would look pretty nice. Love the fact that it has a stick in it. These Fairlane wagons look great in stock configuration. Love it! :cheers:

    You could send him a Private Message(PM) just click on his name and send you message, that why when he logs on he'll see your note right away. He's not around as often as some. :)
