JayRamb's Daily Driver - 85 Autumn Brown Wagon

[JayRamb]

Hello Eagler's!

I wanted to share with you, finally getting around to posting, my 1985 Eagle Wagon. I purchased this in January '15. I did a LOT of cosmetics to the car. I've a little picture show below. I put a little timeline on the photo's. This Eagle has only 76K miles so far. Super clean rust free car. The undercarriage is now treated with POR 15 and Black Rustoleum paint, including the rocker panels and prone areas are rot resistant now. It is a MN daily driver. Enjoy the pictures!

(Next year, I will reapply the wood grain!)



When Purchased:


When Purchased:


Before 16" alloys were permanently removed...Rubbed on Flares. NOT a good thing!


Refreshed Hubcaps after 16" alloys were removed completely:


Erwin with Brand New Tires/White Walls...old school, 15" steel rims, with 85 'refreshed' Eagle hubcaps. SAFE for the flares! Correct Eagle front Grille, aftermarket Fog Lights, etc.:




With NOS Rear EAGLE mudflaps and Rice-Cracker muffler gone! YAY! Bumper replaced. Class 1 hitch is gone:

If you install the proper diameter tire,16" wheels will work fine.
