Another hatchling
« on: August 18, 2012, 02:43:21 AM »
I am posting this as a fresh hatchling, I recently purchased my first eagle, a 1986 4 door sedan with 72k miles. I never planned on becoming an eagle fan, but after driving it 100 miles home i decided that the jeep I wanted to fix with this beautiful thing was not worthy. The jeep is still out of commission and the eagle is now my daily driver. I am so glad that this site exists, I would have pulled the engine and scrapped the car if I hadn't found out how bad a## these  vehicles are. Thanks for the plethora of information and repair advice, I hope that I can contribute as I become more knowledgeable. Thanks!
