I'd say I get comments about 50% of the time if I'm stopped at a store, gas station, etc.  That's with my Kammback, which really draws attention.  The 2 door coupe, not quite as often.  Everyone seems to have good memories of them, nobody has every told me they are a piece of junk lol

When you drive your Eagle, how often do you have people come up and talk to you about it?
For me, when the car was in WI, I'd have one person ask about it for probably every 10 drives in the car. Now that the car is in AZ, I have someone talking to me about it probably every 3 drives in the car. And this is without me taking the car to car shows, this is just daily driving.

Door handles ready to use...





Rear bumber ends turned to be quite nice. They were in very bad shape...

I had clear signals from my sparepart Concord, so I can have factory parking lights. In Finland you have to had white parking lights, so those orange needed parking lights in head light... This looks much better...

Congrats! I've had it happen a time or two. This was my sedan. THIS one shocked me! I was in the *Classic Car - up to 2002* category. They were calling out numbers on the winners & I was packing up getting ready to leave,


Another time the Eagles did it (I have 2 & took them both that time). The sedan got a second place in class & the wagon beat it out for first!




Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. Just took the wagon to one yesterday & didn't get anything. I DID get to see (ALMOST) my old Gremlin. Same year, same color, even an 'X' package like my old one!

New less glossy paint looks nice.



I have fixed those "rubber" parts... and painted those too gloss..  :P Had to paint these once again...



Rear bumper ends finished. There was a little issue left but I got it fixed...



Rear bumper done...almost...



Front bumper done.



And fits perfect. It has holes for flags or something...

Cool!!  Congrats!!

My old Eagle Waggie only once ever managed a 1st Place award.  Was at an annual Pontiac Club event in Galveston - they put me in the "4-Wheel-Drive" class; and I was the only entry!
