Needs A V8: 1964 Ford Country Sedan
I hate to be the guy who always says that some car needs a V8…but…I’m gonna be that guy today. This next wagon needs a V8. It already has a 5-speed transmission swap, so we are good to go with the gears, but those old inline-6s just aren’t up to the task of moving a big ole wagon around with any sense of urgency. I know that they are cool and everybody wants a slant6, but trust me, this car will be a million times more enjoyable to drive with a 289 or even a 260 V8, and it’ll just bolt right in. Consider a disc brake upgrade while you are at it, because the basic Country Sedan was not was well equipped as the Country Squire, but it didn’t come with the fake wood sides..which is a good thing in my opinion. Find this 1964 Ford Country Sedan offered for $11,000 in Concord, CA via craigslist.
