Thanks for the response and I understand. Found out fox body mounts appear to not be a problem, inner fender panels need to be mustang and will need some fabrication. One additional question, is the front k member of a 1979 fairmont 302 V8 the same as a 1988 mustang gt 5.0? I just purchased a donor '88 mustang and just wanted to plan for the swap, if necessary, otherwise i just plan to swap out suspension. Much appreciated, note, saw a awesome fairmont sedan run at bandimere speedway, denver, co, very impressive launch and ran a high 9...I think it's a good look. It has obviously been done before, so you have a template to work from. It's not something I've ever considered personally, so I have no input as to what you'll have to consider w/ regard to the sheet metal swap.
I am building one too. I call it the daddywagon. Wheelbase is about 5 inches longer but everything that you can do to a 79-04 mustang you can do to the fox chassis wagon. I put in a cobra independent rear suspension, 86 gt engine, tremec 3550 so far. I am left with wiring and plumbing and assorted other little things and it's taking forever. It is hard to persevere sometimes. I hope we both achieve our goals.I'd be all over something like this. Half the challenge is finding a clean enough wagon to start with. Heck I'd be happy with a standard Fairmont/LTD wagon with a stroker. I'd even like it with all 4 doors, family truckster!

This is my favorite pic even though it doesn't have these wheels anymore.
