Latest Wood Project
« on: January 03 2018, 10:31:55 PM »
My son picked this up.  Should be fun.  It has had some more work done to it before he got it so the brakes and stuff are good now.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Station Wagons are cool!  :cool;


I wanted to buy one about 12 years ago & couldn't find one.


Since then I've seen a few G-Body wagons, but that's about it.

Makes me feel green.  Only a 440?  You need a 528 Hemi!

Guess I could pull the 526 out of the Challenger but this is gonna be a cruiser. A 5.7 modern hemi would be ideal.

Very cool.  Late model Hemis are swaps worth the effort.

Be careful wagon owners are strange people.
