    Post about 20 pictures and provide a 500 word descriptio which inclides title condition along with current miles per week, needs, and a bunch of other revealing facts about the car. Then many of us will pile on with estimates.

    I just want to see pictures. Meanwhile, I think someone was looking for a 63 Mercury Meteor wagon recently. Check the "wanted" section of the forum.

    We've got to see some pics of your wagon. '63 Meteors were one=year only wagons. Surprisingly, we have a few here who own them, but they're all the 'non-woody' type. It would be nice to see yours...

    Welcome to the SWF.....

    Welcome...will you be sticking around once you sell your wagon? You could do like me and keep a non-operational wagon around just so you feel like you belong here! :biglaugh::biglaugh::Welcome:

    Welcome to the nuthouse! Once the wagon is gone, be sure to stay around. There are several of us who have no wagon, and others with no car at all. We are an inclusive family here. Love wagons, and you are part of the clan!

    Sorry Rev, but yours is a 63. There were no 62 Mercury Meteor wagons (though a build date in late 62 would be entirely possible).

    63 Mercury wagom

    Hopefully the pics get downloaded. This is my 63 Mercury Meteor Country Cruiser wagon. It was built in KC,Missouri has a 260 v8, ac,pwr steering rear pwr window . The body code is 71d paint and interior all original. drives great. there is some rust starting but underneath is solid the rust is not critical. Just trying to figure out what its worth is and looking to sell. I bought the car from the original owner havethe window sticker and original title. The gentleman bought it out of Harrison,Arkansas it spent part of its life in Knob Knoster,Mo at Whiteman AFB the the bulk of it years in Greers Ferry, Ar. this should give anyone a little history of the car. Thanks
