Looks pretty good for a winter beater. The wheels really make a difference.

I dont know why, but for some reason that car repulses me... Perfect for a winter beater... Looks like it needs a nice red lift kit to really be all it can be :grin:

looks typical of a car in midwest. that will buff right off.....errr compressed air will clean that right up. scrap it after you get the good parts.

i wont be scrapping it for a long time. i plan to use it for storage of the parts needed kept dry. like interior pieces doors ect...

the reason for fixing my black wagon over the green one.

the black one in already in my name so i dont have to pay title fees
get a replacement windseild figure out how to fix strut mount ect...
