Well I had been good for 3.5 months but yup, I bought another one this morning. 13th wagon since Aug 2007....hey that's one every 6 months! This one needs a fuel pump.
96 White woody, trashed blue interior, 110K NOt quite sure what I'm going tot do with it yet.

I think it'll clean up okay but not great. 2 owner car, SE FL it's whole life, only one rust area (pics to come)I now have 4 at the house and my boy has two so we have a 6-pack!

Wish I had space for 6. There's a couple of 96 & 94 wagons available here cheap.

Did you ever sell the tan wagon? I still say you have the most understanding wife in history!

Yeah I figured that was at least $200 value added lol

Considering what I paid for it, I'll be hard pressed to lose money on it even if I scrap it. The stainless molding is shot too (all dented up and drywall screws holding the rub strip on Rolling Eyes

Well I sold it this morning to my buddy who helped me tow it home. This will be his 2nd wagon and 4th B-body in his possesion. I'm walking away from it for what I have in it, just to pass the love on and free up a parking spot.

It is not a worthy canidate for resurrection unless you wanted a rat rod or work truck. Thought about parting it out, but don't have the time nor inclanation as I have other projects.

Any idea how the water gets into the cargo box? I had the same issue, turned out to be a clogged drain hole.

Pete

There are a few ways water gets in the cargo box: butterfly window, roof rack or maybe the rear side window.

Subject: Re: UP to a Baker's dozen Wed Apr 23, 2014 7:56 pm

this one also has an actual hole in the roof too but it's small and not in a rain channel so most likely one of the other ways. Most of my 13 wagons have leaked back here one way or another
