Finally running after 4 1/2 years 1983 eagle limited
« on: September 09, 2014, 05:36:16 PM »
Just wanted to brag on my eagle to all my fellow eagle owners after starting my np229 conversion 4 1/2 years ago moving twice and going through a horrible separation I've finally got her back to running. 
    A friend of mine that parts out wagoners hooked me up w a tf727 so I put that in as well. I'm so excited to continue my vision of an eagle that will "be in a magazine one day... Here are some pics after I pulled her out the garage under own power and washed her up

Heck yeah. We'll have to hook up when you get your front bumpers done and do some off roading.

Sometime in the middle of January, a group from www.expeditionportal.com meet in north GA for Country Fried Weekend. I missed it this year because of work, but hope to make the next one. Here's some pics from 2012. They used to meet in the woods, but now meet at a campground to make it a little more family friendly.
