My Daddywagon

Haha! I love it! You and I have the same hood scoop! Definitely rare to have T-tops on a notchback.

 

I'm going to piss some people off because I'm doing the aero nose.

 

The foureyed fans will scream “foul!” but you’ll be fine. Just sell it to an aero owner looking to go the other way!

 

$30 on ebay to swap out dash and console. I dislike wiring. I hope this will help. I think I may have to convert the whole chassis to avoid a lot of splicing.

 

This is the second Ford wiring manual I’ve had to buy for the Daddywagon.

 

The Daddywagon attended Fleming’s Pumpkin Run for the first time. This is not your standard car show. I had heard about the show for years and was finally able to attend. This is the end of the season for me. I will probably just drive the car to the Ford vs. Ferrari movie then that will be it. Time to swap out the dash and console.

 

We will sure miss er til next spring.

This is one good thing about FL... no need for seasonal vehicles.

 

Yeah... I’m gonna miss driving it. But hopefully I can improve upon it for next season.

 

nice! whats the squeaking?

 

Hahaha! Lol! Good question!!

 

I am a gearbox and brake pads away from a track day. With any luck it’ll be a track day against my brother’s 2017 gt350.

 

Every time i see this thread I think of my buddy abandoning his LTD at the Honolulu airport cause no one would buy it from him before he left lol

 

That makes me sad. But these things do happen. We do our best with what we have. If he had a local relative he should’ve given it. That is just an opinion. Forget all of the performance capabilities... a car is a luxury and a privilege. I feel blessed to have the ones that I have. The wagon is the fun car. The truck is the everyday go-to. Wifey has a camry... it doesn’t get much more reliable than that. After that it’s all extra, just in case, back-up. God willing I can keep everything rolling in a positive direction.

 

No family on the island and tried to give it away to a few people and no one would take it.

 

That’s a shame... sorry to hear. With any luck someone who needed it ended up with it.

 

People prob give you some looks when you take off in that..lol i like it

 

Yes... yes they do. It’s not always positive, but that’s ok. Automotive enthusiasts get it and offer a thumbs up on most occasions. I generally have a good time driving this car.

 

Heck... I enjoyed watching you drive your car. Those videos were awesome.

 

lol...Id have too much fun with that thing.

 

Your brother has a GT350? There was a dad at my kid’s class who threw me the keys to his and I refused. I don’t have that kind of insurance! By the way, sticking with 4 eye nose. I’m finding these pre-‘84 cars have parts that are hard to find.
