This has been a project car for two years for me so far. On the exterior I've shaved the door handles and installed solinoids on the inside which are controled by remote. Also, i have put on american racing rims and a new paint job on. As far as performance i have decided to keep the 218 hp straight six engine for now, but i switched the old transmission for a turbo 350 transmission for future engine conversion. The exaust system has also been replaced and set up for v-8 conversions also. The engine itself has had close everything replaced on it. Evetthing thing from hoses, carb, water pump, wiring, ect. Except for pulling the engine itself out to be machined and bebuilt. Suspension is all new, including new coils, shocks, and sway bar. Going on into the interior, the headliner and carpet are restored. A pioneer four speaker stereo system has been intalled. I have custom built a bigger glove box to fit the stereo console for easy lock up to keep it out of site. Over all the car has been great to me and its a great week end cruiser.

Beautiful looking car!! I'm looking to restore the look of my wagon under the hood. Could you possibly post a picture or two of the engine in your car? Check out the wagon and vote on my poll too when you have a chance!
