my landlord has a 62 Fairlane survivor wagon... baby blue on blue int... the paint has great patina, but it's not rusty or anything. the interior is pretty much mint except for the front bench seat bottom and he's got a blue mexican blanket on it.
it's a 260 w/ a 3 on the tree. he overhauled the 260 a year ago or so. He daily drives it to work and back on nice days
he's got a 63 Fairlane 2dr that he's been working on for a while (actually had it longer than the wagon) and he's doing a straight front axle and a 302 in it

It's not as nice as the others here, but here's my 63 Fairlane with a 221 V8. I'm the 3rd owner, got it from my Grandpa, it has 37k original miles, but it's been sitting since 1982. I plan on just making it a nice cruiser, mostly original except for new paint (same color though), and maybe an AOD to replace the 2 speed auto. It needs a new gas tank, lines (maybe), and the typical tune up stuff. New brake system is already in place. I need to find a 2 barrel carb too if anyone has a line on one. The interior just needs new carpet, rear seatback, headliner.
Sitting in the field it came out of.
