Gaining ground..... must make ya nuts not being able to drive it?! I've called a couple of times, no call back......

It's about time you got busy on that thing.....:occasion14:

This is like reading "War & Peace" with pictures! Kidding Zach! Nice wright up.....I've hit 2 cruise nites with the wagon this week because of its A/C, probably been hotter in MI than down in FL....

Yes, went to Chelsea Tues. cruise nite @ 95degree & it stayed around 200.RR got a recore also, going to try to put some miles on it this year ; LRE seat cover came in yesterday & my cousin is bringing me his '55 Packard Fri. to get it functional again so I'm staying busy!

Looks like one that used to roam around Hell.........

Mine was on the drivers side; I also have one from the backseat.

Found the remains of a build sheet for my 300 between the front bumper bracket & frame rail today. I'd guess it was on the sub frame when it was assembled, and the bumper was installed right over it. The sheet matches the one out of the rear seat, just very suprised to find it there.

Mystery solved; working the springs to remove the front bushing loosened the 2 sections, the originals are 7 leafs with a 5 leaf overload set added on. They apparently have been in place soooo long they stuck together. I ordered a set of Monroe Sensa-Trac shocks all around, the rears being a...

I would also guess dealer installed; whoever put them in it was the complete spring pack as there is no apparent way to seperate them! The shackles are in decent shape & will be reused. The wagon is a Newport.

Ha! Gotta have the best for the best! Checked & the rear hangers are different than the b body, also different than my '66 so maybe a wagon thing? The bushings I believe are the same but the top long one has a center bushing, 3 pieces total.

I wondered about them being updated, but everything appears to have been in place since new. I bought the car 22 years ago from a guy that grew up with the original owners son who bought the car specifically to pull his Airstream trailer. The factory trailer towing brochure is still with the car...

Here they are out...

Good looking undercarridge! Got the springs out ( 85.4 lbs each! ); rear hanger bushings were toast, front bushings not too bad but I'll replace them if I can find new. There is no center bolt thru the leafs, I can't figure out what is holding them together... Smooth top & bottom other than...

Actually got the trans mount from Steve; Schumacher gets them from him also :) I had to rearrange the garage yesterday so I let the wagon run for a bit and it did seem to settle down on the vibration. Once it hit normal idle, it was barely noticable...... Now the rear springs are coming out for...

Any one used these? Updating my wagon, original motor & trans mounts were shot. Schumakers only had the poly loc for the '65, nice pieces, went in no problem. Start it up, the car vibrates like it has solid mounts...... I'll be looking for new rubber, not liking this at all.

Correct, 4 door hardtop

It was featured in Sept. issue of Cars & Parts ( Amos Publications )... One family owned until I got it in 2008. 25,000 miles, totally orig except tires and had the heads gone through as it had not been run in about 30 years & the valves stuck....

Glad to be here, I guess we're all pretty new here! 2 C's here; '65 Newport wagon & a '66 300....

The '65 is still with me, the '62 found a new home...
