New project- 1977 Pinto squire

Short and sweet but just picked up a new project. a 1977 Pinto squire wagon. I never really liked my 1980 hatch and it's been sitting in the garage since 2018. I saw an ad for a 77 Squire wagon red with red plaid interior for $2500. Waited for it to drop, then offered $1500 when it didn't sell. It's rough, but I think of it as a diamond in the rough. This is my dream car. My parents owned a red 1977 Squire wagon with red plaid interior. This one will be optioned similar to it. More pics to come when it's day light.

Looking good. I see you had to go for a drive to pick it up. I like those Love's Truck Stops.
Where are you from?

I’m from Columbus, Ohio. The wagon was in Massillon Ohio. Needed to stop to check straps so figure I better get gas. It runs pretty well although they had to install an electric pump. I might leave it. I might replace the intermediate shaft and see what happens. The timing belt will need done anyway more than likely.

And thanks. The moment I saw it I watched like a hawk for a drop in price. I had to have it.

Hey Matt!!!


Welcome back!


Congratulation s on the new project.  It's hard to get motivated if you're just not into the car you're working on.  Squire wagons are very cool.
