    Hello, my name is Mike. My current project is a 1968 Ford Country Sedan- 390, 4 barrel. This is my third wagon, I traded another '68 Country Sedan and a '68 Squire for this one. I'm slowly getting this one in shape, one small project at a time. Not going to be a full resto right now, just trying to get it reliable and fun to drive.

    I've been lurking here for awhile, taking advantage of the knowledge on this forum and thought it was time I join in.

    :Welcome: to the forum. Have fun fixing up your wagon. Just don't paint it battleship grey. You both need to get some photos up so we can see what you've been doing besides lurking. ;) Maybe some members with wagon knowledge will join in.

    This is when I first brought it home. Most of my work on it has been mechanical, so this pretty much how it looks now.
