    I am pleased to join your station wagon community as I have just acquired a very nice 1968 Country Square. This, along with my Lincolns and Thunderbird completes my Ford Family of Fine Cars. I also looking forward to learning more about this car and to benefit from members' experiences. The car is very clean, but I am looking for some replacement door panels and the back solid panels as the previous owner installed (ugh!) a stereo and drilled into the panels for speakers. Any leads on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome Jack! That's a beautiful '68 CS you have there! I want to see more of it! And what years Lincolns and Thunderbird have you? I love them! you really do have a Ford Family Of Fine Cars! :character0182:

    It's good to know you...people have told me for years "David, you don't know Jack!", so now I can finally tell them they're wrong! (like you've never heard that one!) (y)

    David :Welcome:

    Welcome to the SWF, Jack!

    That Squire looks to be in fine original condition. As to your search for parts, if you haven't already done so, post up a thread in the 'Wanted' section. You might also want to touch bases here with member Dr. B Smith, who has done a complete frame-off restoration on a '67 Country Squire.
