    This brings back memories! My mom had a brown 1980 Fairmont wagon back in the late '80s and she was a tough old girl! I brought home a vintage gas pump and a 1946 Seeburg jukebox in the back of that car. A friend and I made a 800 mile road trip from eastern Wisconsin to the middle of Iowa in 1989. My mom got another car and she gave me the Fairmont to use when I went to tech school, she never let us down. Not the most glamorous car I ever had but I kind of wish I had kept her! Good luck with it!!!

    That 5.0 and 5 speed from the wrecked mustang would be mighty nice in there with the fuel injection and everything. Would make a nice all around ripper that would still haul the family.

    I can’t imagine how their home repairs were after seeing their sign painting.

    The little dog figurine at 38:14 is Georgette from Oliver and Company. I've seen too many movies with my kid 😅
    Love your videos, we watch them all the time!

    Maybe Miller did one side and Cronan did the other?

    The greatest feeling is washing the junkyard markings off your rescue. I'm a Mopar A-body fan, my next favorite is the Ford Fox. Give me a Fairmont or Granada wagon, that's all the car I will ever need. Thanks, Josh, shout-out to you and your awesome family.

      I would love to see what this car would look like with the bumpers and trim cleaned up. A SOS/Brillo pad or steel wool will go a very long way on stuff like that and will not scratch! Give it a shot see what you think.
