    Getting there with my 87 Pontiac full size wagon. Don't have the pics on here just yet but the dent stud welder has come in handy as well as some wood pieces couple of hammers and some body dollies will look good. Pics will follow after I get what I need done. It will then be on the website. Thought I would give you guys an update.

    Fifth set and that is where I am at right now. Will be making the patch panel tonight or tomorrow. Hope you are enjoying the pics! After all has been said and done will use some rubbing compound to take the oxidation off the car! Then a good glaze/sealer to keep it shiny!

    Nice to see a project on the go, I'll keep you in mind if I come accross anything down island ( I see your rear bumper is a bit rouph)

    I'm hoping to get to Maxwells auto wreaking not this, but next week end. I'll let you know 'if" they jhave anything for you but I'm sure you know how hard it is finding wagon stuff on the island is. I have to phone Maxwells, I HOPE they still have the black Crewzer like mine, I need a rear hinge for the tail gate glass...it broke, and I WON't open my window any more because, and because not driving the Crewzer as much......My old dog needs wheel chair access!

    I can tell you now that Wades ( by Western Speed way) does not have ANY full size wagons that would help you or me.

    Hello again!

    Thanks for all the praise guys! I really appreciate it!I love this wagon and I wanted to get her going. Sorry it has taken a bit to get back to you guys. I tried finishing off that patch panel but I found that the metal wasn't the greatest.Just kept filling pin holes. Since then I have taken out the piece from the bottom part of the crease to where the quarter meets the trunk drop off. I have all the finishing materials to finish her off just hope I can get this welded in and most of it finished so I can get her going. I want it finished before the end of the month because I need it for camping and hauling stuff. As well as using it for work as a back up vehicle since my rear wheel bearing on my Alero are going.
