    Nice shaggin' waggin' man!

    Noticed it too has the plastic lensed high beams... Just replaced all the lights on my Townie and discovered all four of the headlights were plastic lensed Sylvanias and that Ash's high beams are also plastic lensed. Were these factory?? New lights I put on are glass & have that nice classic look.

        Saw this in the SF pictures and was wondering who owned the mint wagon.

        Looks great!

              Yes, factory-original Sylvie plastic headlamps. Those high beams never seem to go bad. Seen a whole lot of them still installed over the years, including my own car. I replaced them when I had it painted, figuring that I'd worry about them when they were the worst looking part of the car.

                Apologies for the old bump, but I specifically logged into GMN because I'd not heard anything from Zach in a long time. I figured a new car had happened, and I was right. And now I'm jealous.

                Cars this nice don't exist (for that price) in Cleveland.

                    It's a beauty of a car, and couldn't be in the hands of a nicer guy. Pantera has been one of my biggest fans/advisors since I joined this site and I'm happy to see him with a good get. Perhaps someday i'll have the time and money to properly do what my poor car needs done, but for now, I live vicariously through y'all, and watch, read, learn, and note what I'm in for. Zach's advice and knowledge has, and will help me greatly in my endeavors, and hopefully going through some of the strange motions i'll be going through, can in turn help others. At least those that live in idiot states with idiot smog laws, or those with MAF cars like me. Gearing up to do a complete top-end on a Lo-Po with new heads, 1.7 rockers, intake, TB, MAF, and complete induction setup including '04 PI airbox. Hoping in the end it pretty much looks factory but greatly improves performance. Since I'm on a MAF computer, I figure it should adjust to all the new shit fine once it learns what's up. I'll be doing this with a c&l MAF which is CA legal with a smog EO number. Just got cats put back on the car so the goal is to do "pretty much" everything commie legal here in the land of sunshine and no water. We'll see how it goes, but congrats on the wagon, she's a keeper!

                      Quick update on this thing.

                      Rebuilt the trak-loc and swapped in the K-code from my other 91 wagon.
                      Swapped out the rear springs for cargo coils and replaced the shocks with new KYB GR2's
                      Added PI lower control arms and a PI rear swaybar
                      Added a hitch, and trailer brake controller. Since then I've decided to buy a F250, so I'll probably take the controller and 7pin out, I'll leave the hitch though.
                      Fluid Filmed the snot out of it and swapped the snows on.

                      Other than that I just drive it. Not really going to do anything else with it, just keep driving it.
