    Well I cleaned the seam and it's split like something hit it. So I cleaned it up really well, sanded it and prepped it, then pressed it with JB weld and forced it into the seam split. Gonna let it set for 18 hours and see if it leaks tomorrow. Fingers crossed that it holds, but I am going to order a new one for it. But want to drive it this weekend for a couple parades

    /Sorry, I have not been here in awhile. My Ford wagon was used in a photo shoot this past Thursday. I got to shoot some pictures also, I had a blast, I never dreamed I would be doing this... 01-IMG_2457.JPG 16-IMG_2474.JPG 19-IMG_2469.JPG 22-IMG_2463.JPG 23-IMG_2456.JPG 24-IMG_2449.JPG 25-IMG_2434.JPG 26-IMG_2431.JPG

    Nice photo shoot and great looking station wagon. You were lucky there just happened to be pretty girl up on that mountain. It amazes me it appears there is a lane and the grass has been mowed.
    Did you get a free wash after the photo shoot? The sky looks scary.

    Same as ModelT1 said.
    Like to add that American iron and American flags go well together.

    My wagon went into the shop today for (2 brl Autolite) carb rebuild ( air leak in the diaphragm and electronic ignition fitting) new air filter, new plugs, timing adjustment. Hopefully should make her run a bit better!

    That's a clean looking Rambler. Most models are not my favorites but I like this one a lot. Hub caps make it look nice.
