LATEST UPDATE: 11/18/2023
PROGRESS/MAINTENANCE:
After 6 years of just sitting around I finally got the Wagon titled and registered. My previous friend who I got the car from lost the title from the original owner before he transferred it into his name and his ex wife pressured him to get rid of a couple of his cars so I was able to take the car from him for free. After sitting for so long some maintenance and work was required. So far I've replaced the entire front suspension with a kit from Detroit Axle, replaced the Main Relay, Fuel Pump, Spark Plugs/Wires and Passenger Headlight Assembly
The plan for the Wagon is just simple and clean. It will be getting bodywork done to take care of the surface rust and a OEM Mulberry Red Respray. I went with Tein Coilovers, Megan Rear Camber Arms, and SPC Front Adjustable Ball Joints which were installed last month. I eyeballed the ride height and camber which actually turned out perfect except the front will need to be raised about 3/4 inches so I don't have updated photos with the drop. For wheels I found a great deal importing a set of Autostrada Modena in 16x7 and 16x8 +34 from Japan and they will be going on next year in Spring. Aside from what I have already listed, the interior is missing a couple panels from the trunk and rear seat headrests which I will need to source.
The factory motor has over 280,xxx miles and before I start driving it next year I will likely take care of timing/serpentine belts and the water pump. Transmission shifts smooth as butter but will need the fluid replaced along with oil, coolant and brake fluid.
