    a couple of nailheads in a 59 invicta wagon

    I loaded a 364 into a 59 invicta wagon for a car guy in switzerland. I found the 364 in a 58 parts car and single handedly loaded it into the back.
    I tipped a snowmobile trailer carying the 364 to the same level as the 59 'floor', bridged the gap with a piece of plywood, and pulled the motor on the plywood skid using a come along braced at the rear of the rear passenger door openings.
    And they said it couldn't be done.

    update

    hey guys, i finally got back there the other day and checked out the wagon again. Alan, it does not have power windows, only door locks. Eggs, it doesn't appear to have the aluminum drums from what i could see. and i thought Alan asked about the rear interior panels? those actually looked good from what i could tell but the guys working there make it sound like they don't like parting out cars.. they are trying to sell them whole. hell maybe someday ill have a moldy 69 wagon to cruise in!! :laugh:

    see y'all at the nat's!!! :beer
