This is my '62 Station Wagon shortly after I brought it home two years ago. It is all stock except for a Chevy 307, radiator, and heater. The paint job was done with about the same care as the V8 install. It has a Rhino PTO winch and the Koenig PTO drive. Rather than just chase the little problems around I've decided to take it down to the frame and do a complete rebuild with some upgrades in the process. A quick list includes: mild 350, sm420 tranny, Warn OD, Dana 44 front axle, Dana 60 rear, power disk brakes, power steering, and spring-over-axle suspension, and repair of all the body rust (not too much luckily). All will be done with an effort to keep the original look. This is a slow project, being done a few hours at a time but things are going steadily onward.
