I may have a possible relocation in the near future, so everything has to go.  I am back to selling my sedan project.  There has been some work done since I got it, and it is stalled on window switch wiring. Once the wiring is done, the door panels can go on. Other than that, the front and rear glass can go in, all plastic trim and bumpers.  The interior is pretty much finished.  A good days work will get the car back on the road, not including painting of the plastic parts (fender flares, rocker covers etc.).  I would like to at least get my money back ($1,700) if possible.  Please PM if interested.  Thanks, Rich

The sedan project has been sold!  The buyer agreed to keep in touch, and I hope to get photos.  I will post them when they are received.

It is bittersweet to see it go. I would have liked to keep it an finish it, but I have other interests right now, and need the money. I am sure I will get another Eagle someday....Rich

I just got a email from the guy I got it from, and he is excited to find out that the car could actually be finished soon!  I will be putting both of them in touch....Rich

Finding a good forum was step one in restoring a car such as an Eagle.   not alot of them out there and seems like even less info.   Ive been restoring a 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente and its kind of in the same boat, although mechanically there is plenty of resources on that car.

I really like those Comet Calientes!  Would be great to see some pictures of it as you're restoring it!

ill stick some pics on in a photo bucket album so you can scroll through them.   got the caliente when i was 15 as my first car.   currently have the engine out as i had to notch the shock towers and change it over to rack and pinion steering to clear some repop 289 hipo exhaust manifolds and i got a little carried away welding up unnecessary holes.
