84 GL Wagon Update


Recommended Posts

Back in January, I purchased an 84 GL Wagon that I thought was a good deal. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. I paid 350.00. I put in a new axle (60 bucks plus shipping to send core back), new steering rack bushings, oil filler cap, two headlights(one new, one JY), a brakelight, front side light (parking light??) lense(JY), starter (JY). To date, I have put $514 into it, including title transfer. I'm guessing its due for a radiator (this one has a "seep" leak) that I'll probably also get from the JY. At this point its as good as a daily driver (I'll get it insured this week) but needs the timing done. BTW, the headlight, side lense and starter cost me 17 bucks at the Lynnwood PAP today. :headbang: :headbang:

 

To do:

 

Timing

3" lift with pug alloys (there's a pug shop right by my house, time for some recon work)

Roof rack

Grill guard

Stereo

Lights, lights and more lights.

After all that, I want one of those horns like the General Lee had. I found them online for about 75 bucks.

If the Pug shop near you is the one just off Holman near 103rd, I wouldn't go there for pugs. The owner hates subaru people cause they bug him for rims for non-pugs. Trust me, I've been there. He's really an okay guy, but likes his pugs like we like our subes.
