What have you done to your wagon lately? (Let's keep the thread going!)

Those are cool! They will look good on your wagon.

 

I am going to be getting new wheels soon. Any suggestions for my Safari wagon? It needs to be 5x5 bolt pattern and at least 15 in.

I will probably be picking up a 400 engine this weekend that I will be rebuilding.
Also, good news: My wife is enjoying the wagon - minus the smell. :"

Those look pretty sweet. I just popped over to that thread. Wow, those are expensive new.

 

The Colony Park got an alignment, rotation, and balance yesterday, and an oil change the day before (at 2,000 miles, as usual)

 

I like the reproduction "Rallye I" rims. You can get them in 15" (I think even 16" now). Had these on my 66 GTO. Loved them! This image is from the Year One web catalog:

 

Oh man, some times life tosses a dog-spud over the wall at you, other times it hands you a bag of just ripe black berries

Today, I got the bag of the good stuff . I found a broken rocker arm stud. That's it. After a good chuckle, a sit down for a can of real Coca Cola and not that stuff with all the fun sucked out of it (diet - no cal crap my diet police DW has me drinking - I hid this can before she got to the shop fridge) I swapped out the stud, put a new rocker/ball on and adusted all of them just because the cover was off, then the valve cover back on, hit the key, and it purrs like my old cat when he's just been fed and is curled up on my lap .

I'm wagon-eering once again. :banana: Why, I think I might just drive out to car-club breakfast tomorrow just to have some fun, whether it rains, or more likely, rains.

 

Good news, easy fix, on the road again. Life is good!

 

I can't seem to find these on their site. I am still looking but I just got through 9 pages and can't find them. Those wheels are great looking. Any idea on pricing?

 

These are the GM rally wheels with the rings on my car. It says Division of General Motors on them. If you can't get these for some reason, I think American Racing has some like it....probably sans lettering.

 

Holy crap, they've gone up a lot since I bought them!!!

Best price I found is at Ames Performance.
A set of 4 15" X 7" with trim rings, center caps and lug nuts is $999.

They have the correct center caps with the black center, not the chrome (generic) caps in the first photo I posted.

I spent most of yesterday installing new black door handles, new locks, reconditioned sport mirrors and added electric door lock actuators for a future alarm install. What's amazing is my Eagle uses the same door handles that Hornets used since 1970. Chrysler used the same handles on Jeep half doors up to 2006 so you can get new aftermarket ones quite easily.

American Racing doesn't have any that I have found. And JMT whoaaa. $999? It even says the picture is not an actual representation.
I will keep looking because I really like those wheels. I am finding heaps of them in chrome though.

 

The wheels are silver, not chrome. All of the beauty stuff is chrome.
