Hey all im new here just picked up two 1982 eagle wagons for 600 bucks one for parts one has a tranny that the owners nephew ran out of tranny fluid so its not drivable otherwise its good condition. I am hoping to do a rebuild on the transmission or if I can find one put in a manual but im not up for doing major modifications until i know the car better. Its the LX version PW PL etc, everything works for the most part. Will get pics up asap  :)
1982 Eagle wagon i6 the "almost drives" bad tranny
1982 Eagle wagon i6 no tranny/title parts car
1994 chevy 6.5 diesel 3/4ton
1981 Yamaha Maxim XJ550

Great find. You saved an Eagle and will re-purpose another. Sounds like a good day and for only 600 bucks. Eggs to you!

         HI   Sam  welcome and nice save on the 2 82s ....I have trouble parting out an Eagle that has a good body
                and runs .... I have a 82 that needs the motor put back in and I would have 2 for winter ....
                Good luck with your Eagles ....I gave you an egg . .......... Don
HI.....A BAD DAY WITH YOUR EAGLE IS BETTER THAN A GOOD DAY AT WORK ...A GOOD DAY WITH YOUR EAGLE IS PRICELESS

There are Eagles lovers and there are the uneducated and the best we can do
with them is try to EDUCATED them on the virtues of the BEUTEFULL cars that we drive   ...................don
