One driven by Rocket Power :D. On hwy 100 around 5:30 or so going past BW3's. Saw the rear sway bar, 442 wheels and brown gas cap too. Thing looks clean!

Nah, paint the cap chrome for the ricer look. Makes the wagon look fast. Gonna lower it? Or just some stocker F-41 type springs? Would look mean lowered a little, IMO. Makes me want a wagon even more...

I was just going to put some F-41's out of my 442 in it. It's already too low for the rim / tire combo. It rubs when turning and is grabbing the chrome trim from the inside. I suppose I could beat the lip in a bit :goof

I ended up putting the original wagon springs back in. I hope to change the fronts this weekend. The 442 rears made it level with the current wornout fronts and the ones I took out of my 64 than were taller actually had a lower rate and sat lower than the 86 springs. So I figure than it should sit level with the 86 fronts in there.We'll see I'll end up with a good combo eventually. I am also going to attack the headliner this weekend, at least get the sagging material and old foam off anyway. I gotta do that exhaust too, sounds like ass with that blown donut gasket.
