I know a 235/70R15 fits. The 75 gives you another inch. If it were gonna rub, it'd probably be the back side on the plastic inner fender liner nearest your feet.

New lights make such a huge difference. I’d say that’s good oil pressure as well. How many miles were on it when you bought it?

Looks like a nearly perfect fit. I love finding parts I forgot I had!

I’d say the Merc wagon is a good car and priced accordingly. Someone somewhere got 6 kids and a wife and all that stimulus money piling up could swing it and have a place to haul the crew in a...

Looks like a twin to my 90.

Reserve not met?!?!? They they smoking wet turds? They’re gonna wish they took that.

Almost finished installing these tonight. (Ignore the dust. It gets a bath very soon)

Got to make a wiring clip...

Gotta love a box project car. The more aerodynamic one looks pretty good too.

That green interior just kills it for me! And so many of those 79-81ish have it. It’s like the blue of 1985ish-1991ish except I like the blue better.

I wonder what was cheaper for Ford to build....

You are welcome. I have several other models of Fords but this is the only place I hang out. It’s a pretty good crew around here.

Here ya go. I'd order this one. It's aftermarket, so the fit will be marginal, but if you gotta have one, you gotta have one!

I agree with David on all these points. Cleaning IAC and throttle body, and checking the TV bushing would be my first stop. And the trans fluid.

Your TV adjustment could be a little high. What’s...

The different fittings and thread types are something that I need to learn.

So I wonder if they really wanted to do the family truckster conversion... or did they just do it for investment purposes?

Cars can be investments for some people but I sure like driving and...

Thank you. It’s been what seems like a lifetime!



Thank you. I hope it’s ready so. So ready to go cruising. I started this when I was relatively young... 28. Now I’m getting into the middle...

I like this better than the other wagon you posted and that’s saying a lot! I guess everyone in the US is flush with $600 so the price of everything goes up.

The asking price is high but it’s a nice ride. Someone got spray bomb crazy on the underside.

Nice work on the shift collar and lever. I have had that same battle. It is not fun but it is rewarding.

The mystery connector behind the instrument cluster may be one related to the optional...

Thank you. The color is a 1968 Ford color, presidential blue. I used a Nason base and Southern Polyurethanes Universal Clear. The Nason is a cheap paint, and was really thin but I think that helped...

Lots of trials and tribulations today but by the end of the day, it moved out and back into the garage/dungeon under its own power!

No road trip yet but soon.

Yes, from the EVTM. I have an extra 1988 version available with the body/chassis/electric manual for sale. $15 plus shipping if you want it. No idea how shipping works to Poland.

YES! I was just going to let the safety latch do the job but I managed to get it fully latched. Will still need to be adjusted once the fenders get installed.

Finished the carb rebuild. Will likely need smaller jets but we shall see. May not run at all right. It’s from a 1963 390, so I don’t know if it will like the little 302.

Set the camber and toe on...

These may help.

Sent Quincy a pulley. Paid promptly and seems to be a pretty good guy to work with.
