Not much to look at but, pretty solid. In this picture I have just removed the trans (powerglide) and engine (194-six).
Have the power glide rebuilt and assembling the 194. It's going to be a every day driver and parts runner and toy puller! With gas prices the way they are I decided to stick with the small 194 for now anyway. Also, installed the complete deluxe CPP tubular front end but, still need to align and work out a few quirks. And, installed the full bearing idler arm which made a big difference in the steering.

Thanks! I also would like to replace the stock drum braking system but, that will have to wait for awhile.

Welcome to CHR. We've got a couple of active guys in Springfield so you're in good company. Nice wagon, and totally understand keeping the six with petrol pricing.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
