My advice would be to let this be a long term project. These cars can be hard to find parts for and it takes time.
Welcome to the forum!

Hello everyone,
My husband has had an 82 sx4 since before we met and we are finally getting serious about restoring it. Any tips and insight shared will be much appreciated. I am however particularly looking for resources and info on back windows and back windshield louvers. I'm sure I'll have more inquiries but share whatever you felt was helpful with your own efforts!

That Eagle looks great for a WI car. Where abouts in WI did you find it?

I've had my Eagle for nearly 9 years, but there was a time in the middle where I sold it. Mine is a daily driver for me and they are great cars!

Howdy everyone!

My wife and I have always had an appreciation for the Eagle and have been on the lookout for one for quite some time. I recently found a 1988 Eagle Wagon in Wisconsin that's in pretty awesome condition! It does have relatively high mileage at 190k, but it's been exceptionally well cared for.

The gentleman I bought it from kept extensive maintenance records, so we feel confident the engine still has plenty of life left. Our goal is to keep it as original as possible, but we'll be making a few small improvements to help preserve it—such as sandblasting the underbody and protecting it from future rust.

Thanks so much for allowing me to join the community! I'd love to hear about your own Eagles—how long you've had them, what challenges you've faced with maintenance, or any interesting finds you've made along the way.

Just joined the forum assuming information will be key as I try to help my son get his 1986 Eagle wagon roadworthy.  Vacuum system is a mess (mostly removed by PO), runs well, body in decent shape, lots of little stuff to fix.

Thank you!
These are all from times right after I washed the car so that's why the paint looks so nice. Usually the car is way dustier
