reverb Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) I have been eyeballing the forum for a little while now. I bought my roo 4 years ago its stock still with 154K sat in a barn for 20 years or so. After i picked it up i stripped the underside of all rust and sprayed it with bar and chain oil. Then drilled the frame and filled it with bar and chain oil. Just put new brake rotors,front struts, timing belt /water pump and radiator in. Looking to do some fun stuff now..any ideas?

AWD J3wman Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) High roof! Nice, very jealous! I would lower it, copiously. Edited June 27, 2014 by AWD J3wman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reverb Posted June 29, 2014 Author Share Posted June 29, 2014 Thanks!, and thanks for the idea. Unfortunately I live in Vermont where having a lowered car is not an option due to our rough roads. But I just got a line on a 2" boss lift..I'll keep updating pictures as I go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Your Wagon looks like the "touring edition" with the bumped up roof too. Nice car, thank you for the pictures and the back-story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWD J3wman Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 AAw man don't lift it! I live in MN with a lowered CRX, our roads kind of look like the roads from Escape from New York, it works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick1208 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Lifting it is fun, but damn you dont see many touring wagons! Keep it clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reverb Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 Thing is nick I live in central Vermont ski country where the roads are caked with salt in the winter and I do everything I can to keep her clean but no matter how much I try since it is my daily driver it will come to an end at some point....might as well work her hard! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKghandi Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 i find rinsing it in a river is a good way to get rid of salt, also mud keeps the salt away, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
