Hello My father said you will love a car like this someday, well he was right. Just got my first Wagon. Looking forward to the joys of 10mpg, I have an unrestored 1978 Mercury Marquis, I'm unable to verify the mileage so i'll have to say it's turned over. It was a classic barn find and once i cleaned her up this is what i got. The boys have named it the Shaggin Wagon and no way are they ever taking it to prom. Thanks
Turning into your father is not a bad thing. Someday those kids of yours will too!and good luck with your wagon son!
to the wagon train booger. wow...that is one clean barn find! The engine compartment is awesome. Good score.
Dont know how to verify the milage but a true shaggin wagon will have footprints on the headliner ..... good luck with your new find!
Cat, you youngsters are so inexperienced. You'll find out when you get older. Booger, to the wagon forum and that is one great looking wagon. At least you'll look good burning the fuel. Mercurys are awesome cars.
Cat, you youngsters are so inexperienced. You'll find out when you get older. But I drove a convertible and a Vette coupe with a T-top! There was no headliner.------On a sad note---when I was younger we didn't have to worry about how much fuel we burned. We didn't have to get a bank loan to fill the tank.
I have a vivid memory of the camel's hair headliner in my 56 Chevy and the dust in the air when fingernails were dragged across it.!! ...... ah-chooo!
Welcome to the forum Boog! Thanks for the pics of the wagon, now we need full details of how you found it, its equipment, etc. Is that a 460?
Hey Booger, back to your thread. Tell us more about your wagon discovery and whether it has footprints on the headliner...and other important stuff! Like what is that clean engine lurking under that clean hood...?
