My wagon is back!


Recommended Posts

Well after a sudden meeting with a telephone pole almost 2 years ago my wagon is back on the road. It went thru a few changes over the past year or so, I did drive it for a short while last summer with no front end until mom decided she needed her radiator back for her hatch. Since then I've managed to pile it back together thanks to a few fellow members parts cars. Anyhow, enjoy. It still looks like crap, but I kinda like it that way. :D

coolest part is the turn signals, the '81 bumper doesn't have them like the '84, so I moved the them beside the headlights, where the parking lights originally were. Very JDM ;)

 

I'd like to paint it eventually, but it's got a good bit of rust above the rear wheels and it the rockers. The car is an automatic, so I'll likely try and find another manual wagon to fix up, but it's nice to have a vintage sube back on the road. The Impreza is nice, but nothing compares to the GL!

 

Oh, the A/C still works and is way colder than the RS :D

looks good! are you going to paint it all 1 color?

 

i see you took the pics at a new hyundai dealer:lol: it fits right in:rolleyes:

 

heh, I was actually looking for a newer wagon or Forester to trade my RS in on that night, well lit lot made for good photos.

 

I plan on painting it white, my first 2 GL's were, and I nothing looks as good with the wagon wheels. I do like the OD green I painted the drivers side with, it really seems to fit the wagon.
