gen 1 roll call


Recommended Posts

1977 Wagon

EA71

4 SP/4WD

129,000

100 bucks....she was in a field for 20 years and she shows it. It has taken me about a year to get her running. Had to totally go through the fuel system and have rebuilt the motor. Added a Weber carb, she runs great now! Just need to work on the body inside and out. I love her!

Welded on the exhaust last weekend. Sounds much better!

 

Spent about 30 hours cleaning out the entire Brat. Found some spare parts and learned a ton about her. Love my new project!!!

Did you rescue that from a scrap yard? I could swear I've seen that brat in a pic somewhere in a scrap yard.

NO, at least I hope not, lol. It was a private seller in Colbran, CO. She runs and needs some work so I wouldn't think she was scrapyard bound. Title was registered to his Dad.

I told myself I wasn't going to post this, just bought it. gets here Saturday.

We'll see what kind of project this turns into.

 

Wow nice.... I saw this one on craigslist and that it looked awesome but I remember it had some work that needed to be done before it was drivable but the body is in really nice shape and a great start.. Please post more when you get her..

just had this fall into my lap two weeks ago.

79 4wd 1600 wagon 70,000 miles.

Seems pretty solid except a little rust at the bottom of the doors. Engine bay and undercarriage are rhino lined? no rust. Need to get a manual and some parts.
