I just read this article about this famous wagon that sold at auction a few years ago for just $5500. You'll never believe who owned it! Click on the link below and read the great story and check out all the pics! http://www.speedhunters.com/2013/03/a-wagon-that-rocks-n-rolls/

Probably using 2 or 3 inch lowering blocks.Takes about half hour a side to install and costs about $35 for the kit at parts stores like Autozone.

Not even close!

I know it's not comfortable working outside,but I manage in short time periods,doing a little at a time.It helps to get a tarp so you can deflect being in the direct sunlight.Also get a fan,it'll help cool you down a bit,even though it's outside the movement of the air will help with this 100%...

There are lots of guys that do portable soda blasting now and they will come right to your door.It's non-toxic so it can be done right in your yard or driveway and can probably be done in less than an hour giving you a clean factory metal finish. If you've ever seen something soda blasted it's...

What about steam powered automobiles? :poke:

Esso gas later on became Exxon

Yeah,even Walmart sells that aircraft paint stripper.Better to strip the paint off the front end while the nose is off the car,makes it easier.

Things never go as planned,especially with a car that's close to fifty years old!

Yeah,all it takes is a leak in the fuel line going to the carb. This was damage due to the previous owner.Cleaned it up and got her running again and you'd never know it happened.

Between the pump and the carburetor but it's also a good idea to place one under the car between the tank and the pump for added measure.

Welcome....looks like you've got a nice car to start off with,and a convertible to boot,which makes it that much more desireable in my book! Good luck with your newfound project!

Looks like a mish-mosh! Paint is shinny on top surfaces but satin on sides.Not a fan of scallops and that green top looks horrible,would have looked much better with a white top.Painted bumpers are ok but car would probably look alot better painted one solid color.

If only I were closer.It appears to be pretty solid.I'd inquire about what TLC it really needs but overall,it's hard to find a decent wagon from this era without paying a fortune.Lots of guys are after wagons nowadays.A solid body is a good start,everything else can be rebuilt/restored.

What part are you looking for and for what car?

I like the furniture feeling! Hahaha

I can remember my father buying a brand new 77 Volare wagon and having it recalled within 2 years due to the tops of the fenders rotting out.I guess they managed to use some of that Chinese sheetmetal that GM had left over back in the mid-70's
