Just got this Ranch Wagon shipped in from California.  Started to inventory the parts.  I'm used to Michigan rust, so the lack of rust is a pleasant surprise!  Guy tore it apart to restore and lost interest.
Here is a picture of it coming out of the hauler.

Home, inside my barn!

Hey, your not too far from me.  I live between Morenci and Clayton.  Just use the M.I.S. reference for people to get an idea of what part of the mitten I live in.

Nice and solid looking...and from the looks of where it was sanded to bare metal, not too many coats of paint to get off. Nice find. Keep us posted on the build. Any plans yet?
I can do this, I can do this, I, well, maybe

I am not sure of the plans yet.  Probably keep the body stock, interior near stock(maybe tuck n roll on stock seat frames.).  Drivetrain is the part I'm not sure of yet.  It came with a 91 Mustang 302 and a 5 speed in it.   Not wired up and not running, just motor bolted in and tranny in but not bolted to cross member.  I also came with a 58 hood in the back, have not decided on if I'll use that or not yet either.   I guess I have a lot of decisions.
