My new wagon!

Nice looking ride you scored there!

 

Nice buy, that car looks great! Enjoy it

 

Thanks everyone for the encouraging comments and well wishes. It's nice to be the owner of a car like this.

 

Extra extremely very cool. So now it needs a 2 inch lift and 24 inch wheels, right?




Just kidding!

 

Yeah, those items are on my to do list, but they're at about 872 and 873 in priority. Actually, I live in redneck country, so maybe a 10 inch lift, 4WD and a gun rack would work better.

How did I miss this intro? I needed a drooling fix so bad over the last few days too! Welcome Tiga and Big Red! What a gorgeous wagon! Nuthin' but class!

 

You bet they are! I'm all about keeping this car original and stock appearing. It would be a shame to molest this car by funkifying it.

 

Glad to hear it, tig! It would be a travesty to alter that beauty after it survived all these years in perfect shape.

 

Hey Tig....it's been awhile....how's that cherry wagon been treating you? Is it a runner?

 

Now that's a bitchen wagon! Huge congrats...

 

Fox: It has been a while, hasn't it? I haven't driven it much over the winter because I try to avoid driving it in the rain. But, when I have taken it out it's run nicely. Every time I drive it I get at least one thumbs up or a positive comment. Unfortunately, hot chicks aren't the ones who comment on it, but rather middle aged men who can truly appreciate the car.

In November, I had a local shop fix the wiring that goes back to the power window on the tailgate, so that's working beautifully now. They also fixed the tailgate so it's again a fully functioning three way magic doorgate.

Since I've gotten it I've also had the exhaust replaced and I still have that used windshield that needs to be put in (the current one has a small crack in it, but it's still quite presentable). The car really doesn't need much other than a few cosmetics (paint is worn off on the lower rocker panels, vinyl woodgrain could use some work, etc.).
