Matt's wagon, I'm done

[JDP]

It stops great from 10 MPH with one or half of one wheel braking, not so good in reverse, but trailer ready. I left its first bath to Matt, but did clean the mud off the wheels.

John, the spare tire that you put on the right front doesn't match the other 3. That's a deal breaker.

Well. Not really.

Thanks!

Good looking car..way to score Matt...

Hey, when I got the car two didn't match, so I'm improved the issue.

It would have been nicer had it not spent a year or more under a tarp staked to the ground, Both the wagon and a 4 door Continental have some moisture bubbles in the paint down low, and the Connie had near perfect paint before outside storage. If you have a car under a tarp outside, remove it NOW.

Looking Good Matt. Im liking those extra bumper guards on the front bumper.

Looks like it needs braces with that smile!!

Matt, if you thought Christine was fun, this wagon will be even more fun, you can haul a boat load of Stainless and many other things you thought you'd ever need a wagon for, They are so Handy and you can still haul people with you.

The bumper guards will be the first things removed. StudeDave57 has graciously offered to take them off my hands.

I'm beyond anxious to get this thing here. I cleaned out the other side of the garage this evening and made plenty of room for it. It'll look good sitting next to Tom's old '51 business coupe. I dug out the buffer too. Maybe I'm too anxious.

JP, a check for $100 will be in the mail tomorrow.

Might want to scrub/wash it with Bon Ami or Bartenders Friend first to get the dirt buried in the paint off.

Cool car, Matt. I used to get to go to work with Dad at the dealership in Knoxville, and remember thinking how cool it was to set on that "back porch" of the wagons and watch the cars and the guys working on them, ha !! John

Sharp-lookin' machine!

Matt, cool car. I did not know about the" back porch" on these wagons. Growing up in a Ford agency we had a different treatment to the tail gate.
Good luck.

May I also recommend GM Surface Cleaner? Available at your local dealer over the counter. Stuff goes on like a liquid wax, but when you buff off, it takes all the grime, road tar, insect waste and paint oxidation with it. Really amazing stuff.

So if this is out of line please just say so, and I would totally understand not wanting to post it in public,
BUT, what did you end up having to give for Penny?
Just say MYOB if you want to. Just curious.
