While picking up this 61 I came across this loaded 60 ford country squire woody wagon.
Power windows,seat,stearing,brakes.
A/C/roof rack.
Supposed to run
I don’t need anymore projects,but I sure like this wagon!!!!!!!
This 61 has only 76K miles.
Last driven 1974.
Tow yard guy pulled the $1000 or I’m going to have it crushed…
SUPER rusty for California.
Sitting abandoned in forest since 74.
Although mostly covered in moss some things were preserved by forest.
A very rare nice soft dash pad….
A excellent...
Buddy cushion from 70 300
Driver condition.
Solid core for recovery.
Has lighter.
2 blems shown in pics.
$75 plus shipping
70 300 bucket seat cores.

May part out seats if they don’t sell.
As far as changing plugs (MOST)original Xram cars have factory original inner fenders that are removable to help assist in access to plugs.
The brake booster is also slightly different.

Well story is not over this wagon yet! It did not get crushed YET!
It found its way to a pick and pull yard in Windsor California.
Once it goes into one of those yards they never come out.
I do not see it on their inventory list?
Not sure if they will crush it or put it line up.
Disc...
Just found these 56 series plates
available.
PLY 400
I guess this means there was a
PLY 225,318,361,383,413,426,440
I think I will pick these up for my 61.
Is there a guide anywhere to letters/numbers and year as to when plates were issued?
IE, This 56 series plate would have been issued in what year starting with letter V
This 63 series plate would have been issued in what year with letter Y ?
Wrecker showed up a week early
before the the guys self imposed deadline…………..
It’s been raining here nonstop for last 2 months. Everything is stuck in the mud.
Derby guy flaked on buying it.
Wagon was sent to crusher with all parts.
140 speedo,73 disc brakes,special order tags,15 inch...
This plate 066 AAA is among the earliest number known.
Long ago I removed this plate off a 74
Impala bumper that was crushed and stacked on flatbed on its way to scrapyard.
I was grabbing bumper for a derby car use.
Didn’t think much about it at the time.
My dad started collecting...
