hey everyone, new to the forum and i'm from nebraska...i've poked around the forum a little but finally signed up last week...i've wanted an eagle since was a kid, and finally bought one last year...i picked another up from missouri a few weeks ago, and another one with a bunch of parts last weekend...i'll get pictures up as soon as photobucket and lets me login to my account ::)
Welcome to the site. Lots here to keep you busy reading and showing you how to keep that Eagle running.
Very nice. I look forward to seeing what MO Eagle you bought. I've got my eye on every Eagle posted in my state! :)
thanks guys, here is the first eagle i bought, 81 sx/4...valves were stuck because it had been sitting for years, bent about 6 rods trying to get it going again, but it runs great now!

this is the one i got from mo a few weeks ago...underside is in great shape, almost no rust at all...

and the one i picked up last weekend...this one has a few rust issues underneath...not beyond saving, but it will definitely take some work...the inside is a goldmine of spare parts though...

Nice collection you're starting there :)
You go guy! I'm impressed.
Awesome...I think I remember seeing that SX/4 on the CL in MO. If I remember correctly it was being sold as a parts car and was pretty cheap.
Welcome. Is that last one from Jerry (JSKSX/4) in St. Louis?

i actually picked it up from a guy here in town...he apparently rebuilt the motor, had the tranny rebuilt, both of which have less than 2k miles on them (although the thing has been sitting for a few years since)...
Welcome to the forum. I love your cars, its great that you've got such a nice collection already. We've got a couple of other members from Nebraska in the Nest, including 83Eagle! (Brandon).
