1978 – 1983 Ford Fairmont Station Wagon

Since I laid eyes on the Worlds Fastest Fairmont Wagon back in 2004, I have been on a quest of sorts. I had a few other projects that I needed to wrap up first, but fast forward to 2008 and you will find my 1964 Malibu SS is restored and my 1990 Mustang GT has transformed into a race car. The time has come for me to find a Fairmont wagon and build my next dream car.

At this point I am not sure if the car is going to get a turbo 5.0 Ford or an LS1, but I do know what I want to do with the suspension, Interior, and exterior of the car. I had a professional concept artist prepare the image below to keep me motivated.

If you know where I can find one of these wagon, in particular a Ford Fairmont Squire Wagon like the one in the picture above, send me an email. geoff@hotrodhomepage.com.

    Its not the fuze. It’s the brske light switch. It’s on the frame above the steering colomn. When the brake pedel is releaced it push the switch in to releace the tail lights. About 6 to 8 bucks for new switch.
