I know Doug, i have an oil pan to put on the car that is in great shape.  Thinking of all of that work makes me cringe and keeps me awake at night  :o  on Tuesday i am going to pick up some paint and a 1 piece pan gasket.  i am going to try and run it the way it is until either it is time to change the oil or it starts leaking again which ever comes first.  Kinda funny thing happened though tonight, me and my father took the car out to get some pizza and while we where getting ready to get in the car we hear "where did you find that mustang station wagon?" So i got to educate someone tonight about eagles :P ....... I am still chuckling over the mustang wagon comment

I know there were prototype Mustang Wagons made in the 60's.  I don't know if any were produced.  Time to google.
