    1959 Mercury Wagon

    Dash is a factory Jeep Cherokee silver, not sure what year though. It was just some spare paint that a local painter gave to me to use

    1959 Mercury Wagon

    Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated! These are pretty rare cars - especially trying to find parts for them. The wheels are Boss 338 20x8 up front and 20x10 out back. Not too sure how much gas is these days - must be around $2.30 for 98 octane, when the car needs gas, I just fill...

    1959 Mercury Wagon

    The floors were the main part that needed replacing, most of the car was otherwise solid. Here is the before shot and will post up a new shot of what they look like now in a couple of weeks when I see the car next.

    1959 Mercury Wagon

    I imported this car from Montana to New Zealand late last year and have got stuck into it already. It is a 9 seater, 383 MEL and auto and has been sitting since 1971. I stripped the motor and found it to be on its way out so will probably try and get a 460 to put in it as it will be cheaper than...
