____If there are any flaws,I`m not seeing them !.......I think you`re just being modest...John
Outstanding Pete !! My 1st car was a '61 Country Sedan in white...$200
I think I spent more time under the hood 'n under the frame then I did driving it...lol
But that's how I learned to work on cars..all self taught..Thank-you Mr. Ford !!
Dan, the FM green wagon reminds me of my ‘66 Caprice wagon. I’m a big wagon fan, the original SUV!
Thanks for all the positive responses. I’ll have another to share in a week or two.
Can't wait to see your post ! My fav wagon was our new '63 Country Squire
Wagon in Burgundy met. with a 3rd folding rear seat!
My Dad would back up over the bump at the drive-in so we could be in pillows an blankets. The tailgate window would retract and we'd watch a great movie.
I'll never forget the ending of 'Von Ryan's Express'..
I have chores to do......but I`ll wait here instead

Yup, I’ve got a soft spot for station wagons too. Very practical.
USAF 1958-62
Our family had wagons too...
... first was a '58 Plymouth with three rows of seats. Later, and '63 Dodge with three rows that we did the "family vacation" thing from Alabama to Disney World and back.. I "inherited" it when I got my license, but had to share it with my older sister until she went off to college. Most of my friends had camaros, mustangs, 442, etc. I had mom's station wagon.Oh well, I was very popular for double dates to the drive ins on the weekend. With the seats folded down, windows fogged up, and blankets spread out, I can't say I remember "seeing" any of the movies!
