HELLO all 73 country squire

HELLO all i have 73 country squire .. thinking of making it a cruiser .


thanks darrell

 

Darrell: So what are your plans? Would look really nice with the nose lowered a bit and some 17's all around. These wagons look really good in the dirt!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome to the group.

Rod

 

Thanks Rod i posted in the project part what im thinking of doing but want some input before i start ..lowered and wheels are a must !!

 

to the wagon train, irish. Those are nice wagons.

 

aboard, good luck with the project. Keep us posted...we really like pictures.

 

IM THINKIN...hammered and spanky wheels is all she needs

but not....greeeeat big wheels

to our joint

 

I'm thinking if you paint redo the wood trim. It will look good lowered with some 18's. You could lose the roof rack if you want to. I think the wood paneling make it look good actually. I saw a 80's Country Squire on a web site somewhere that was bagged,and the wood paneling gave it some "pop". On the wheels maybe do a 5 spoke design. I'm almost tempted to put some American Racing mags on my 73 Ford Country Sedan sometimes.

 

Torq-Thrusts are the wheels I was thinking about...

 

What he said!

to the nut farm

 

i found some boss 338 wheels that kinda look like the torq .. with black is thereor gray 17or 18s i have seen them on a lot of street rods .the wood on the trim has came off and not sure how you can fix that .?? do you cut the springs to lower the wagon ?

thanks darrell

 

I wouldn't cut the springs, it would give you a lousy ride. Maybe do air bags instead. Woodgrain trim mouldings can be refurbished, I think there's some company out on the west coast that does it,There's a thread about them on here somewhere.I just can't remember at the moment.

 

Thanks for the info ill see if can find that trim ..

 

Yeah Bag it. You will like the ride and handling better.

 

thanks ..i would love to do some bags but dont think i can budget them right now ..i have been looking for some springs that would work .

 

Here check this link out. A lot of tech there to bag a car,truck,wagons.
