1995 RMW from Florida to California

Hi all. Introducing myself and my 1995 Roadmaster Wagon.

I bought in May last year from Fred Lesinski in South Carolina. It was a Florida car and I drove it cross country to my home in SoCal. I use it daily and still feel the same buzz as the day I picked it up.

I bought it with 95k and now have 118k on it. I've replaced the rear shocks (kept the self-leveling system), AC compressor (was leaking), engine oil sensor (was leaking through the unit!), transmission fluid filter, solenoids and gasket.

Long terms plans are to just keep it in nice shape and keep using it. I'd like to put an LS3 EROD in it, but probably never will.

I'm looking for a front license plate mount - the black plastic thing - if anyone has one?

Very nice Wagon. Welcome to the Forum and to the joys of Bbody Wagon ownership.

Welcome!!

Nice and welcome. I probably have one of those front plate things somewhere in the garage. If I run across it, will let you know.

Welcome to the club! I bought my first two wagons from Fred when he was still in NY. Good to know he still has both oars in the water.

And you drove it from coast to coast?? Well done!

Thanks! I just refurbished the wood trim surround, and it would finish-off the car nicely!

Yep, and it made it without a single issue, just like Fred said it would!

Boy that's a pretty one! Nice car, GREAT pics!

Great looking ride,welcome to the Forum.

Hi, and welcome!

I’m in Cali as well and have the front plate bracket.

I’ll pm u

Thanks for the PMs regarding plate brackets. Unfortunately I can't reply as I don't have enough posts on this forum...

Anyway, just replaced the front suspension - upper and lower A-arms, shocks, sway bar bushes and drop-links.

Did the Jeep steering column upgrade.

Had it aligned, and got a set of new tires fitted.

It drove OK before, but was a bit vague. The difference is remarkable.

This is how it begins.....bwaaa ha ha ha haaaaa!

Wait until you try the rear sway bar and coilover shocks in the back. Then a tune, air pump delete, 3" exhaust from the cats back, and dual electric fans.

'Tis a pleasant affliction.
