Welcome to the forum
looks pretty good considering it's age!
I've always had a soft spot for wagons

A 'woody' Squire - a very rare beast, even on this side of the water!
What plans do you have for it? |

Well, there aren't that many left in the world, possibly a couple of dozen so it really would be a shame to cut into it. |

Sadly there is one less existing over here in the UK. There was a 55 Squire near me but it was pretty rough with missing inner and outer sills (rocker panels to you Americans!) and the left front wing was missing. It was just about restorable if you were determined but it has gone for scrap. Nobody here wanted to try and save it. The owner took most of the good trim off but it went with all its running gear intact. |

Check the 'For Sale' section, there was a guy selling an original motor and trans plus other parts. He has posted on here.
