IowaEagle or another moderator can move it I imagine.
what year is your eagle allend.
Allen, is that the same one we saw in Iowa a couple of years ago?
You have been busy Allen. Sure looks like his wagon from when I saw it 2008. I'll get it moved for you.
the wagon is an 85. yea it's the same one the rust holes in the doors were under the trim along the side. I'm debating if I'm going to put that back on. If it warms up again soon it will get painted.
i kind of like those two shades of blue that were on there originally.
How are the rockers? Can't really see them well in the pics.
Looking Good! A lot of work there. Will look great when the paint is on.
thr rockers were in good shape
here are acouple of pics after the paint is on not all of the trim is back on yet I seem to have lost some of the hardware to put it back on

Nice color choice Allen.
It looks really good. I'm looking forward to seeing it in Illinois this September. ;D
Looks good, now I'm more motivated to get mine painted and finished this weekend. I just got done spraying primer on it. Doing the paint and clear tomorrow...
My 83 is blue, and I hope to get it painted, maybe next year. I really like your blue. What is it called?
the paint is med.metallic blue acrylic enamel, no clear coat required. yes I painted it myself and there are some mistakes in it but at least the rust holes are gonr and its all the same color. I ordered the kit which has the reducer and harder with it for $68 a gallon from trinity 1945, inc
I was also considering getting some paint from that same place but they won't ship to Canada. Partsource sells it relabled here for $250 vs the $76 that trinity charges.
Thanks for the mention of the Trinity site Allen. Here is a link to the acrylic kits. I see some possibilities for the SX/4 that are close to the original color. I need to study it some more.
