Hey - New here on the wish list and I'm not in need of much. I have a '79 4XWagon in very good shape, sans the front seat (the only one that matters...right-side). The frame is broken and I have to prop it up by folding down/up the back seat. Color is not an issue - original is brown plaid. A little odd - the mileage is low (135k) but the person who drove it for 25+ years went 250+ pounds. The Japanese designed seat met it's match.
Aside - I had '78 and '79 wagons in the late '80s and they both got 30 plus miles per gal. My current wagon gets around 23. I'm looking into leaning-up the carburetor and replacing the front brakes (including adjusting the e-brake). Any leads or help out there would be appreciated. FYI - spent part of the balmy 60 degree day watching the 20 inches of recent snow melt. Tomorrows forecast...80. Life in the UP. Thanks, Bill
