This is my 1980 AMC Eagle Limited wagon. Finally posting a project thread for this.
It's mostly original, aside from some small things and maybe the paint, although I'm not sure.
When it works, it works okay. When it breaks, it's usually minor.
My first real project car. Done some work to it, including but not limited to replacing the windshield seal, rebuilding the carb, redoing the headliner, fixing the door handles (mostly), redoing the vacuum lines, putting in a new thermostat, stuff like that. Small but helps a lot.
It needs new tires because it sat for around 20 years before I got it. The windshield is also cracked as of this fall. It needs some minor cosmetic parts, like the rear filler panel. The sunvisors were also missing when I got it.
The interior's really nice and I have a ton of factory documentation. Reply to ask for certain pictures because I'm not going to fill the page with them. The interior shot is from before I did any work to it and the exterior shot is before I washed it.

Thanks for checking this thread out. Tell me if you have any suggestions or comments.

Thank you!
I don't see many 1980s or Limiteds, so both in one is cool.
