    Hello to all you wagon lovers out there.

    I recently purchased a 64 Falcon 2 door wagon, it was in a disassembled state when I purchased it but was rust free and body was in primer and came with a 66 Mustang with a 289 and 4 speed toploader and several totes of new parts so I am in the process of making a nice cruiser out of it.

    I know this will be one of the biggest challenges of my life but I am up to it so game on.

    Looking forward to using this forum for ideas and friendship (y)

    Welcome aboard! Congrats on your new wagon -sounds like a big project. Post some pics of what you're starting with so we can see your progress. The 289 and 4 speed will be a nice powertrain for your wagon.

    That's going to make a GREAT project, 642dw! Not only a cool wagon, but pretty good one to work on. Lots of 'swapability' between Falcon, Mustang and Fairlane parts sources.

    When you get a chance, set up a project thread in our 'Projects' sub-section.

    Welcome to the SWF!

    Welcome to the nuthouse we call home! Great car to start with. Can't wait to see you making progress on her. She's going to be quite the little wagon! As Krash mentioned, start a thread in the projects section so we can follow along as you build her up. Have fun. Be sure to join in. If you do find yourself with questions, be sure to ask. I guarantee you will get answers. Some of them will even be correct!
