Sorry, no pictures, but our family as I was growing up had a '56 Mercury wagon, a red/red, nine passenger, with the 292 and three-on-the-tree. My dad replaced the 292 with a like unit, but we never had anyone haul off the take-out; so maybe a decade later I dug a deep hole in the back yard, and here it became a challenge to see how deep I could go, this resulting in my having to carve out foot holds in the wall to climb out, when I finally tired I pushed it in, and covered it up. At sometime in the future, some bulldozer driver is going to be in for a surprise!
Later we acquired a '60 Ford wagon, green & white with green six passenger interior, which my dad installed a 289 4V with a 4-spd. The only problem was with the shifter sticking thru the floor the bench seat wouldn't fit, so for a while we had a concrete block to sit on, this didn't work well for me as as light as I was, when I would attempt to push the clutch in, all that happened was that the concrete block (and my arse) slid back!
