Red Headed Step Child - 84 Sedan

[shaggimo]

It's been a wek or so since I've updated this so here goes, lol. August 16th I put the bird on the road, it has been serving daily driver duty for the past ten days, running good, driving good, and sipping gas   . The miss wanted her eggcrate grille back in the sx/4, so the sedan inherited the concord grille, and I also decided to put in the concord turn signal lamps while I was at it. Took it for a little cruise north, performed well on the hills/mountains , took a few seasonal roads on the way home just for a little fun. All is good with it so far.

First trip to work.


Up in the Adirondack region on Sunday, no great pics, too busy driving and listening, lol.

lookin good .... all you need now is a set of wheels (I don't like the factory wheel covers)

[shaggimo]

lol, thanks, I agree, but the caps looked better than rusty steelies, I may throw the 5 spoke jeep wheels on (that were on the sx), just need to find one more to match the other three.

Looks like a contender for Eagle of the month when 4 door sedans come up again.

Yeah man, great looking Sedan! I like the Concord grill and turn lenses.

[shaggimo]

Thanks guys! It has a long way to go, it's pretty battered and beat up. The camera really does this car a lot of justice sad to say, but remember, this car was a recovered theft. The perps really did a number on it inside and out. I think the only straight panel on it is the hood, I have lots of dent work ahead of me, never will it be as nice as the sx/4 but it will be a decent driver when all said and done.

If it wasn't already beat up enough, the neighbor's tree decided to add one more thing to the fix it list last night. 









Not a sight I wanted to see this morning, but, I guess this will be my motivation to fix the roof properly and take away much of the car's ugly look. Could've been worse...

What a bunch of snop

[shaggimo]

Yup, but called around a bit, I can have a replacement in a couple days (If I wanted one next day, they offered china  ), so not too bad, next will be discussing this ordeal with my neighbor....

 Those look like either Grizzlys or Eccos

Thanks Rafe, they are indeed the grizzlys, I have one Ecco which is similar.

[juhap]

They look nice. I tried to buy a set of those, but guy sold those to someone else, not to me as he promised... Grizzlys are no very common here in Finland... So I bought Centerlines instead...

[Prafeston]

No problem!

I found that great Jeep Thread when I was looking for wheel options of my Wagon. Some great info on Jeep wheels there.
