Re: [AMC-list] coil truck arm suspenion for t-tube cars

[Joe Fulton <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

That wagon has been for sale forever.  It was first listed on Mohave craigslist 
site and I guess the seller didn't get enough hits.  It's overpriced but I also 
have a 62 Classic 

wagon so I an appreciate the styling.

A few bits needing work yet BUT at least the pictures were big enough. So many
