    The tale of the 87' Colony Park

    It took over 12 hours and almost 800 miles, but it made it to it's new home. First off, here are some various pics I took along the trip at random rest stops.

    The very beginning:




    Gas stop before we left ($.50 cheaper than up here):












    Nearly all of this was in the wagon for the whole trip:







    More later.

                That car is pure sex, glad you got a hold of it. Don't let her rust Congrats. The engine bay in that thing is dead sexy, I saw the pics on photobucket or whatever that site was.

                          That's a damn nice wagon. Lower it two inches, and call it a day.
