    anyone building a 57 ford station wagon?

    Tripper- The irony is, we moved to ND when I was a kid. My dad worked for an oil company and we got transfered all over hell and back. We moved to ND from Houston. I'm sure it has changed since 1971. hahahahaha After being here so long, i guess i call it home no matter how frikken cold it gets...

    anyone building a 57 ford station wagon?

    Thanks for all your input. I will try and get some pics. Right now with the wind chill factored in, its -55 degrees. This weather tends to put a cramp in getting anything done in an unheated garage. And Ron, nice Edsel, I can only hope getting this old gal looking half as nice as yours. Oh...

    anyone building a 57 ford station wagon?

    Searched and couldn't find anything. Just curious if anyone is in the process of building one and if they would have any advice about getting one of these wagons back on the road. I have one sitting in the backyard and I'm wondering what's in store for me if I decide to do something with it...

    Dagmirs

    I'm in the minority saying this, but your ass end looks good as is, without adding the dagmirs. I would probably see how the bumper looks by itself, without covering up some of the uniqueness of the look you have going now. But then, you have to do what looks good to you, you've been doing an...

    2nd job?

    To help feed the rat fever, I gig with a band a couple weekends a month. It's sad though, what they pay for a live band nowadays is similar to what my dad payed in the late 70's to bands that played his bar. And that was just for a 3 piece oompah band. We do try to only book places that give us...

    New guy from the north

    Hey thanks for the warm welcome. And to answer a few questions, the 39 is still sitting in the backyard waiting. As far as how much money I have into the bug, the original bug was free(it was heading to the scrap yard). I spent about $250 on a rusty donor bug that had a recently overhauled 1600...

    New guy from the north

    After moving all over the states as a kid with a dad who worked for an oil company, we finally settled in North Dakota. It's where I live today with my wife and 16 year old son. And 12 year old springer spaniel, who still loves to hunt pheasants but can't go all day like he used to. Hey, who...
