    I might know where a 57 to 59 wagon is in a kind of distant junkyard and a local yard has a 60 wagon.

    Ribbed roof and those tail lights make it just that much more cool. You can always drop a different engine into it. It's nothing but time and money!!!

  4. Cool car, you could just chop the top and lose the side glass like mine.

    Quick check of a '63 glass catalog show the 1/4 window NAGS # as a Q-3019, one year only. (Add "T" to the # for tinted.)

    Ive found 2 of them on DVAP.com

    I wonder how scary there price and freight would be to get it here to arkansas?

    WIth a rare glass like that, i might be more apt to make the drive out there myself than risk UPS.

    If you need a little motivation to make a decision, heres a couple shots of a friend's here in Kokomo, IN. Its stock suspension, cut coils I believe in front. Merc motor was yanked in favor of a (yawn) sbc/turbo combo. You might not see it on the road anytime soon though because operating a vehicle requires a DRIVER'S LICENSE!! Wait to go Slick! HaHa. I hope he reads this.
    If the Ford wagon shares that same rear side glass, there are quite a few of those in the local junk yard. Just pm me with your email if you need it.

    Let's give this thread a bump to see if there are any other pics out there to inspire me. I have a line on one that I can't get out of my head.
