NO RESERVE AUCTION - THIS COOL OLD WAGON WILL HAVE A NEW HOME!!! Let me start off by saying that I would consider this car as a starting, running, driving, stopping project! I do not want to mislead anyone... this car is far from perfect, but is a great start to an awesome old wagon. Engine - 292 Y-Block with newly rebuilt Edelbrock 4-barrel. I believe the motor to be original to the car, but I have never checked the numbers. The motor does leak/burn a little oil and smokes occasionally, however it always has good oil pressure. Car also has full length dual exhaust exiting below the rear bumper. Transmission - Original column shift car, but now has floor shift three speed + overdrive out of a Granada/Truck (shifts just like 4 speed) Rear - Factory Dana style rear with new brakes, etc. (believe the gears to be 4:10's or 4:27's) Interior - Has new red and white reupholstered front seat, new black carpet, new headliner, and new wind lace and door sill plates. The back seat still wears the original upholstery. I believe all garnish moldings are in place and still have the original paint along with the original dash. Glass - All glass is in place and intact Gauges - Has all aftermarket gauges, including column mounted tachometer (original cluster currently does not work) Electrical / Horn / Wipers - Converted to one wire alternator. New wiring for front signals and headlights. All lights, signals, horn, and wipers work as well. Body / Frame - Paint shows OK from 10+ feet, but there are dents, dings, waves, and scratches throughout. Frame is very solid and the front cross member has been replaced (common issue on this era of Ford) Title - Clear Pennsylvania title in my name Misc. - Interested buyers are more than welcome to check out the car in person by appointment. I have tried to attached a lot of pictures to do my best to show a true representation of what the car really is. Since purchasing the car, I have basically only driven the car around town a few times for probably a total of 25 miles. I have noticed that under extreme load (hill climb or continued hard acceleration) that the engine will develop a "bog". I have not taken the time or energy to address this issue but I think there may be a vacuum leak. The car also has had some paint repair under the gas door on the drivers side. As stated previously, this car has great potential but needs some TLC in its current state to be a great and reliable daily driver. I personally did not build the car and have done practically nothing other than rebuilding the carburetor since taking ownership but will try to answer any questions to the best of my ability. I do have a few Polaroid pictures from the gentleman who built it that will go to the winning bidder - According to the pictures, the car was built to its current form between 1997-99.
