cream - tan wagon in oregon
« on: July 13, 2011, 08:29:24 PM »
I was working with my buddy this morning and we went for a supply run, on the way back to the job I had the pleasure of seeing an eagles front end staring at me as we came around the corner. It was a  cream - tan wagon with a bike on top. Sorry no picture I did not have my camera and could not get my phone out quick enough. It was on beach drive in Seaside Oregon.
   My wife had  a couple come in the surplus store she works driving a 84 maroon wagon recently to.

saw one just like that walking through Portland yesterday. Parked in front of Details by Mark. http://www.detailsbymark.com/
Was told it was the owners - Mark. Such a nice thing to see. Check the gallery on his sight and you will find the wagon. I correct myself.. it was cream and copper?

I see that.  That is one shiny Eagle.  Looks great.  Boy, that must've been a popular color, I see allot of that color scheme on eagles posted.  Even mine is the same color.

There's a blue Marlin that shows up in the background of some of the Eagle pictures, and several shots of a Grand Wagoneer on pages 5 and 6.

That one is a lot "nicer" than the one I saw it mite have been copper once but the paint was worn to tan-ish brown on this one. It looked like the guy was on an "extended camping trip" the car was full of stuff and had the bike on top.

Hay mojobean got any idea how many Eagles are around Portland? I know of at least five.

minimum of five. I have no way of knowing if the ones i've seen, know of , or have conversed with owners through many means are maybe 'repeated' Eagles. But from what i gather... I'd venture to say upwards of 9, though many may be hidden in backyards. Same goes for Seattle, while i know of a few personally, I know many more that are tucked away, or the owners are not 'club-types', or the random 'its just a car to drive that i could afford'. In Seattle/Tacoma.. I'd say no less than 25, not including Everett and north.. or the Olympia area.

yeah all she would tell me was its a ugly little hatchback, sounds like a kamback to me.except for the ugly part.

Here is the 86 sport wagon that was on C-list parked in my driveway :) My buddy got a great deal on it and it is in really good shape in, out, and under.

How rare is an 86 sport wagon?
