Bucky92 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I have been trying to think about what I want to do with Buckster once Pheebie is ready to be put into daily driver service. I dont feel comfortable knowing he can never hold passangers in the back again cause of no seat belts. Then I thought about tucking him aside and waiting to have the money to get a rust free west coast EA82 4WD wagon and using Bucky for parts so he lives on.....and then there was this thought.........how would he do as an autocross car and what would I have to do to him??? I mean my XT6 is going to be a garage king ( cant call him a queen) and will never see snow again..turning him into a show car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the twisty turny from a autoX would end up turning Bucky into a pretzel:-p Fix what you can so he can live a few more years and use him as a draft horse. After that..........................the glue factory:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhise Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Yeah, keep in mind that he is a wagon and can probably hold more than your other two cars combined and a vehicle like that is pretty useful to have around even if he's not a daily driver. -Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky92 Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 I am not going to register Bucky anymore...he still needs too much..and now with the new Impreza...as for him being a wagon ..this is true..but we still have Tommys truck...I just dont want to see him sit and wilt away. And I wont sell him. I will just hold him for parts cause I really would LOVE to have a lifted EA82 wagon for some off roading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backwoodsboy Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 And I wont sell him. Are you sure about that? (I would love to take him off your hands if ever you wanted to......what with his "new lease on life" and all) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky92 Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 Are you sure about that? (I would love to take him off your hands if ever you wanted to......what with his "new lease on life" and all) maybe to someone I know that would be able to fix what I can't..and who is going to treat him well...he is a great car..just needs more than I can give him now..its my own fault. He is the perfect commuter car..great mileage.. I know you would take care of him.....Let me think about this a bit.. You know you and or jess are HIGH on my list of people who I would consider letting adopt Buck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeakingOil Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 we're not worthy! we're not worthy! You are so right... j/k I checked out your weld job on him and I know what Bucky means to Connie so definately if anyone was to keep him alive you'd be the man to do it.

subyrally Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 bucky would be good with a tube chassis, then you could do what ever you wanted to him. that or just reinforce everything and weld in a cage, lol. then you could lift it or auto cross. dont give up!!
