Title: Finally posting here :)
Post by: drock87 on February 12, 2012, 02:07:56 PM
 ;D  I had an Eagle YEARS ago, but I was only 15 at the time and didn't have the time or resources for the car..and I had to give it up.  It became a donor car for a restoration...thank god. Fast forward eight years...I picked up a pretty cool '85 Sport Wagon with the factory gauge pack.  I know I'm going to need some help along the way...and I know this is one of best groups of car enthusiasts around!  I have a picture of my car on the FB page...its a silver sport wagon

Welcome. I took a quick look and didn't see it on the FB page. Post a pic here if you can, not a lot of people here on FB.

Exactly how an Eagle should look. So in it's element in that photo! :)

Looks like your headlights are gonna need some work! They've gone a littl cross-eyed!

Yeah...I may get some new ones and start fresh.  The fog lights are crucial toward my night vision right now :p  Any other suggestions?

The exterior looks to be in pretty good shape. I like the black grill. I'm not a big fan of the egg crate grill, but with it being black it really helps I think...goes will with your color combo anyway.

As far as getting new lights I have no idea. I need to go down that road sometime too. Mine all work, but one side points down way too much and I either need to replace them or adjust them...I'd like to get something with a bit more HID look. Not the really blue color, but the more white look.

sounds kind of like Eagle Eyes.
