			The carburetor is a Bendix Stromberg Model WW 3-226 two barrel.


			Freshly rebuilt carb on July 22, 2020 at Ace Fuel Automotive in Santa Clara, CA.




					Two front plugs had to be glued after leaking on the bench test.



					NOS Gas tank fuel sending unit #1939305.

New rear floor September 1, 2020.

I’m no wood worker.

Original rear seat hold down bracket bolts and wing nuts.

New exhaust August 3, 2020.

I used 3/4 inch CDX plywood that was special ordered in a 5’ X 10’ length.

Strange thing was the far back two brackets for the long bench seat are located directly above a frame railing from the factory. You can see the imprints on the bottom of the old plywood above left.


	New cowl ventilator weatherstrip from VintagePowerWagons.com


	A town wagon hood has two positions. Normal and straight up. Apparently you can take an engine out without removing the hood.


	30-30 accidental gun shot from the late 60s on a hunting trip. Don’t ask!


	Out of four Town Wagons, this is my first working fuel gauge.


	Soon to be rebuilt Saginaw Steering Box 525 D. Casting # 5675288


	Rebuilt at “Straight Line Steering” in San Jose, CA on January 14, 2021.


	For some reason the badges are not the same on the back.


	The W100 badges on a 1963 had red paint instead of black like a 1965.

These Town Wagon emblems did not come on this year vehicle but I have always liked them.
