    ...goergeous!...that thing sits pretty decent w/o an engine, how low will it go with the motor/trans?...what engine/trans you using?
    ...those 52-4 Ford wagons are one of my all-time favorites, such nice lines.

    Thank you Chaz,,I'm looking forward to seeing a real woody 52-54 2 door wagon!

    Everything you do is over the top and expect nothing less with your wagon.

    The car has 2 " dropped spindles and I'm using a 302 and a 5-speed ******,, HRP

    Very nice, HRP! Love the color...had a 51 Ford PU that looks the same...mine was called Meadow Green I think (factory color). Never had a green vehicle before and people loved it....as I do! Can't wait to see more shots as you get her together.

    Worked on the dash insert today,,cut the engine turned aluminum and added the gauges and radio,,still need a little more work but I like it a lot better than idiot lights.

    BTW,the radio is not in correctly and is just in place and will be adjusted once the dash is in the car.
