    I'm going with a two tone.. top will be sage green (kind of an olive green) and bottom portion will be alpine white.


    Yes, it's a '58 Brookwood. 283, 2 barrel. Someone put a TH350 in it.. I dunno we'll see how I like it.. but I'm thinking 700R4 would be better for what I want to do with it.. which is long road trips. I've also put a hitch on it so I can haul my '68 Shasta with it for camping and vintage Campouts (seems these are becoming more and more popular). Even tho' the Shasta is a '68 and the Brookwood is a '58.. they still look good together. Must be the "wings" on the Shasta. Now I need to find a wood slat carrier for the top of the wagon.. or some kind of vintage luggage rack. (y)

    Back to work on the daughters's 96 roadmaster wagon. Rust a BAAAAD thing! The three hard lines on the fuel tank sending unit have rusted so bad they are leaking. At $479 for the pump/sending unit assembly I will have to wait for a while before replacing. I also found the upper rear trailing arms did not look much better than those lines! Both had multiple pinholes and large chunks of rust coming off. I was able to order new ones from the dealer and should be arriving next wednesday. (Did you guys know that the roadmaster uses 3 different sizes for this part?) I should have bought one from down south!
