    I would have used a 4 eye nose. Maybe a 85-86 nose.

    They should have left the Fairmont front end on it, it would have been cool then. Now, not so much.

    They could have done a nicer job. A different set of wheels ditch the stripes and that awful hood scoop

    I still think it is neat. Not everyone's taste, but nice to see those wagons getting used. You see a Mustang coming up on you from behind on the highway, then it pulls up next to you and surprises you. If it would have a 500 horse stroker in it that would really be fun.

    It would look better with a 4 eye fox front end or the original one.

    I actually thought the four eye nose would look better.

    Here is one with a fox body nose. There was a yellow Fairmont done with a 87-93 nose. That one looks better with the ground effects.

    The Marquis wagon with the Cobra wheels looks pretty good.

    I could stomach the red one. I still think it would better with right nose on it though.

    Never got the wagon fascination for the most part ... I do have a 2 door Pinto wagon squirreled away, but it's likely to stay there because it's a wagon :D

    I think as was said, if you can look past the scoop, stripes, and front 4x4 stance it could be a fun car. Make it clean, drop the nose, and have some fun.

    My thoughts exactly.

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
