    Default Pics of my wagon build

    Hi everyone -

    I'm new here but have already met a lot of great and knowledgable folks. I thought I would post a photo album with pictures (in no particular order) of my wagon build. There's also one video of its first drive around the neighborhood (where it was a bit stuck in 2nd gear - that's fixed now).

    A little background behind the car. I bought it from a used car dealer in Florida. I really wanted a wagon to build and drive to work. I did the usual - all Mustang under-pinnings with a 351W engine that's setup for about 400HP and a C4 automatic. Its been a whole lot of fun building this car. I'll probably build a non-wagon for my son who will be driving in a couple of years.

    Here's the link...

    Oh. My.

    That is quite nice, I must ask what size tires you're running on the black tri-bar wheels.

    The black tri-bar wheels I had borrowed from my father to set the car on until I bought the wheels that are on it now. Those had 245/40/17s. With the street tires I put on it I'm running 245/45/17 all the way around.

    Great to see another wagon getting done

    I was going to call that dealer in Fla. but it was going to be too much
    with purchase price and the haul back to Jerzey. I did find one in south jerzey last Oct.

    Good Luck with it and You're doing great with it!
