Caboobaroo Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 EA82 GL wagon.... possibly an EA82T? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Are you sure it's not a DL wagon? I'm looking at the metel strip on the bumper. But the GL did have that too! So IDK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 Russ is right, EA82 wagon. SPFI, 3at. It's on a steel plate, it just dug holes when it was straight dirt, and the piece of plywood broke and was just burning the edges of the tires. Steel wore nice and even.

daeron Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Damm that DL look's pretty bad! What happend? How many DL touring wagons were made???? Seriously, if your observant enough to notice a little stripe thats there on all ea82s, maybe you should be more patient before posting and see what else you notice.

WoodsWagon Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 It's a GL. The fuel pump had sprung a leak, the rear brake lines had sprung leaks, and the whole car is a rustbucket. I bought it for $75, mostly because it has a clean title. It hasn't run in at least 3 years. Konrad and I rigged up a fuel system for it using a 2gallon can mounted under the hood and a spare SPFI fuel pump, and the engine runs great. Didn't even overheat while we were finishing off the tires. We put nails in the rear brake fittings to plug them off, so it has front brakes. I'll be dissasembling the car in the next few days. Konrad noticed sparks coming out of the muffler, turned out we cremated a mouse in it's nest. You have to put a car out in style. No sense just driving it to where you strip it and tearing it apart. You have to make some memories with the car first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Yeah you can't tell it's a T wagon by the first photo! And not all EA82 wagon's have that little metel strip on the bumpers and side moldings! A Loyale does not have those. But i made a mistake.

Andy FitzGibbon Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 But you can clearly see the composite headlights. True. But you still can't see it's a Touring wagon in the first photo, which is what I said:) Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daeron Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 You can't see that it's a T Wagon in the first photo. Well, *I* couldn't see the bumper in the first pic either, but I figured from this Are you sure it's not a DL wagon? I'm looking at the metel strip on the bumper. But the GL did have that too! So IDK! That there HAD to be more pics, hence my discovery that it was a TW. I couldnt even ID it as a soob in the first pic, at low res.. not at first.

WoodsWagon Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 See the gas tank sticking out from where the spare tire goes? That's what it's running off of. The fuel pump is tucked in below it, and the return hose goes into the filler neck of the gas can. Works awesome once we got the pump to prime.

TheLoyale Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Well in the first photo you can clearly see it's a Loyale, DL, GL vehicle because of the corner light! Plus i can tell a EA82 vehicle from just a glimpce.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I looked at the one pics he originally posted up, no others. I saw the distinctive EA82 bodylines and the composite headlight so I knew it was a GL and more then not, a good feeling that it was a wagon (because if it was a 3-door, I know he wouldn't be doing THIS to it, heh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Yeah your right, 9 times out of 10 it's always a wagon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy FitzGibbon Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I couldnt even ID it as a soob in the first pic, at low res.. not at first. Assuming no parts have been changed, from the first pic I could tell it was an EA82, not a DL or Loyale, and probably post-1986. I saw that it was an EA82 right away, it wasn't a DL because it has the corner light that DLs never got, that style corner light didn't come around until 86 as far as I know, and Loyales don't have the metal strip on the side trim. And I guessed it was a wagon, because there are more of them than the other body styles. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy my point was that at first glance of the lower res image posted in the thread, there was no real detail on the bumper, and no detail to suggest it was a DL, visible.. so I had presumed the lad mustve looked in his album like most of us did as soon as we saw the photo. I was sarcastically poking fun at his "observation skills" that caught a ubiquitous bumper trim line, but missed the touring wagon roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
