      No, I would not restore it. I would clean it up and get it back on the road! It's in really nice shape. The paint back then was better, it might clean up pretty nicely, and scratch repair I'd any.

    I can't believe it! My mother and I were just reminiscing about our 62 Merc wagon we had when I was a kid. We were remembering when Mom, my stepdad, sister and I went to get Xmas trees with it. My sister and stepdad are gone now but we have fond memories of that wagon.

    Honestly the best part is meeting awesome people like that. It really seems that people who enjoy car, trucks no matter the make or model are some of the best people in the world.

    Wagon doesn't start? Don't call Jim unless you have spare time. I'm jealous of you. I don't know what it is like to have money burning a hole in my pocket. Felt some warmth one time but I was wrong. Good luck Buddy!!!

    Beautiful station wagon Chad. That's a gem. Looks solid and all original paint too. Interior is in amazing shape. Someone took great care of this baby. Love it what a great find. We had a 69 Ford Fairlane 500 station wagon in our family back in the day. Folding tailgate. Bias ply tires didn't help for cornering. LoL.Pretty smooth driving vehicle. Lots of use out that vehicle. Very cool. Thank you for sharing. Alberta, Canada.

    Back when cars were actually functional for utility. I'd just clean it up, detail it and keep it as a survivor. It doesn't roar but keep the six. Nice car to cruise NS with.

    Sweet beach wagon! I’d clean it up and leave it original as my daily driver.
    Owned a ‘69 Country Squire wagon with 390, and a ‘64 Falcon wagon with 289. They were great for kids, groceries, laundry, garden supplies and all.

    This wagon was priced very nice too! I just got a 64 Comet Caliente 2dr for the same, but it has rust. Still, got a 289 4-speed so we're good to go!

  • @davidzdziarek-zl8cu
    @davidzdziarek-zl8cu Рік тому

    I see a lot of Buick inspiration in the styling of this senior Ford. And this looks magnificent, where most of these, if you could find ANY, were destined for the crusher long ago already. It looks that good that you only have to restore it where needed, and keep it running condition.

    Hi Chad If this Mercury was mine, and I knew you and Jolene wanted it, I'd give it to you. I'd consider even paying for the shipping to you from California because I would know you will provide a good home for it and probably bring it back to a GOOD life.
