    well..kids....the Country Squire been dry docked !!!!

    I thru her up on the jacks the other day...and...i hate to say it ...but....she's barely safe enuf to drive:oops:

    I couldnt believe it...the passenger side rail is fine...but the drivers side...she is SWISS CHEESE...from the firewall to the center of the rear axle....DONE....poke her with a fork...:taz:

    But...as luck would have it....guess what i got???

    I got a 1972 Country Sedan :thumbs2:

    So...spent the day swappin wheels and fixing things....and were a happenin thing !!!

    So...the first 2 pictures are "why" Trigger has been parked...check out the rail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    then the next few are the CS when I got her home..the last will be after the wheel swap and a wash !!

    so like I said...a moment of silence...then a lil joy:cheers:

    Love the wires on that Squire! I almost ordered a set of 18" wires and white walls for the Shwag right before I found the Eagle billets I have now. Awesome stuff Rev!

    FYI there are a bunch of NOS Ford dash pads on eBay that will fit your car. If only there was a 69/70 pad to fit mine!

    rick, you gotta get a frame donor for that 66. its to clean to let go of cause of that.

    try some rubbing compound on that frame! it'll buff out!

    I can't believe you brought another wagon, although I shouldn't be surprised you hoarder you, to replace it when you already have a parking lot going on there. Now a moment of silence for the poor little CS. :(
