    Not mine and the 69 Squire isn't one of my favorites, but this looks like a great find for some late 60's Squire fan.

    Too many projects, here is one that is already done, you just have to finish assembly. The body and paint are done, factory color blue, cost me almost 15K for that, the engine, a numbers matching 351 has been rebuilt by Custom Engines out of Weymouth, the transmission has also been restored and rebuilt, engine and trans cost me almost 4K, I changed the intake and carb on the engine, but I have the original intake for you. The trim has been restored at a cost of over 2K and is on the car, as well as all new DINOC vinyl. The radio has been restored from AM to AM FM I pod, etc, still retains it's factory appearence, and the clock has been rebuilt too. Tons of parts here. The dash and 8 track housing has been restored by just dashes in CA. they still have the door panels and plastic inside skirts. You will have to pay for those when they are completed in about 3 weeks, should be around $1400.00 when done. Please email me your telephone number on this, it's easier to discuss by phone, thanks, clear MA title. this wagon is done, all the heavy lifting is complete, just assemble and have the nicest wagon on the planet.

    I'm not sure this seller knows what he's talking about. From what I remember, in 1969 you couldn't get the 351 (either Cleveland or Windsor engine) in the BIG ford. The 351 was reserved for the Mustang and Torinos. In the big Ford, you could get the 302, then the next one up the scale was 2bbl 390.......AFAIK...

    Yeah, i don't remember a 351 in the 69 Squire, most were 390's from what I recall.

    Ford did offer the 351 in both 2V and 4V versions, personally I would have ordered the 429!

    Yes the 351 Widsor was a option, I know Canadian models had it rite down to the barest of bones Ford/Murcurys. The 351 Cleveland was a 1970 option in Canada.

    Maybe in Canada but not the U.S.?
    I've never seen a '69 / '70 big Ford with a 351.

    Heck - my parents bought a new, fairly bare-bones '69 Galaxie 500 and it had a 390 in it.

    I was eyeing that same car on Craigslist. I think it is a 351, not a 302, but it looks awfully small in that engine bay. Interestingly enough, there's another light blue '69 Squire in Mass. on Craigslist, albeit in a bit rougher shape (and listed as an "LTD Crown Victoria"??):
