I'm a wagon guy all the way. Soon to have a ls2/t56 in my 63 chevy II wagon. I love the 61 and 62 big wagons.

Well that was some quick action. Here are a few pics so far. I built the car from the ground up minus paint last year. Wasnt happy with the 283 power. So i bought a 1999 camaro and pulled the drivetrain. Re gasket it and put a tsp 228r cam, lifters, oil pump, timing chain, pushrods etc in it. Painted it up and put it in the parkwood. It starts and runs well but still needs tuned.

Various pics of progress. You can see on the above post that i sectioned about 1.5 inches out of the cross member for oil pan clearance.

Here is the trans pan of the doner. Looked perfect, very happy with the condition. Other pics of prepping the engine, and my son with the new circle d 3200 stall. Texas SPeed provided the stall and engine parts.

I had to change out the fbody acessories to clear the bigger truck 130a alternator. I used lsbrackets.com parts.

Mounted the coils on the frame and custom made my plug wires to route under the headers using all msd stuff.

Using these sweet hose clamps to keep everything super clean.

Pics of the fuel system and the piece i used to add a return fitting into the filler neck of the tank.

Mounted the engine fuse box and data connector in the glove box.

Is that Vintage Air on it? If so how well does it cool the wagon? What mufflers are you running?

Very clean engine bay, the classic color combo on the engine looks great.

Mean sounding idle in the video!
