The wagon made the hour and a half drive home without any major issues and was quite drivable,
however i took the car out to the farm the next day with heat and the lights on, i shut it off then tried to start and it was pretty much dead, charged her up and got these voltages
13 volts - idle everything off
12.75 - idle lights on
12.45 - idle lights, fan on low.
11.75 -car off alt unplugged
11.50 car off alt plugged in and voltage dropping.
SO yea alt is on it's way to shitting the bed. got a 3g but it's in the wrong kind of case i will take it to the alt shop and see if they can change it. I will have to fix this first.
The running rich problem/isn't real terrible and is very drivable (not that i am driving this for winter anyway). If Julian couldn't figure it out then there is a good chance i won't have too much luck either, if that's the case then ill take it to a shop.
the rust isn't at all that bad, there is alot of minor spots and a few bad spots being the drivers side top window, the drivers floor is going to be the worst to fix and there's another small hole in the rear wheel well.

At this point i also realized that there was no air cleaner on the engine! - homemade is on the way.
I will be restoring this car come spring, i didn't have any time from summer to Christmas for cars because of school, all winter i will be running the bar up north for the skidooers, plus winter sucks to work on cars, come spring i should have a few months off to go nuts!
however i took the car out to the farm the next day with heat and the lights on, i shut it off then tried to start and it was pretty much dead, charged her up and got these voltages
