Hey guys,
This past weekend I just picked up two 1968 Mercury Colony Park wagons. It was a package of a running car and what was considered a parts car. Well, the parts car is too good to part out. I drove it on the trailer and it doesn't have much rust.

The parts car is Lime Frost Green with the wood paneling. Options are p/s, p/b, a/c. 390 2v, C-6.

The main car was Saxony Yellow with wood paneling. The car hs been painted a cream color and the paneling was painted tan. This car has a 428 and C-6. Options are p/s, p/b, p/w, p/l, p/seat.

It was a long day of driving to go to the middle of Long Island and back. I drove the yellow car home while my friend trailered the green one.

Very cool...what's the plan?

wow cool you were right around the block from me!

The plan was to have "a" station wagon. However, I will not be parting out the green 390 car. So, for a while, I will have two. If I had to choose , I would keep the green car. I like driving around the yellow 428 car. Not that it has much pep. Either way, it is a cool car. The 428 car would be worth more to sell, so it would probably be the one to go-----if I have to make a choice.
hey sixty9cobra, are you in Nesconet or Mamaroneck?

Way cool! Don't see many of those anymore. On my drive home from Lake Geneva today I saw a really nice '66 all-black 2 door Galaxie fastback coming my way. As he passed, I saw the 428 emblem on the fender....and it brought a big smile.
