That is one sweet looking wagon. It's obvious that it's been loved over the years. Driving it back and putting that amount of miles on it in three days is a good indication that it's a solid runner.
I think you bought a beautiful wgon, IRMB! I LOVE those big '63 Fords... Welcome to the forum! Marshall
Nice! I hadnt noticed before - the 63 ranch wagon looks like it has the rear end of a 64 country sedan - but with tail fins. Will have to read up on those more.
