Probably 7? I dunno, I mean, he has three and one shell personally. Then Erin and I, and maybe one other person have been there at once I'd say. 8 if you count the camper.

oh TRUST ME the Wago~Camper counts its 2/3 a whole wagon... but better i can stretch out and sleep n it....
Picked up "old blue #2" yesterday. She's in really rough shape, but with A LOT of TLC, she'll be lookin' brand new .. progress will take time, but that's okay...right?
Here are pictures from the seller. I didn't take too many cause I was more concerned with the condition than taking pictures..
She's got A LOT of cosmetic issues, but lucky not too many dents ..but the hood us fu**ed, and we're going to have to repair all the shitty bondo work and replace lots of things from my old crushed wagon...
Oh and the interior is ... not so good. the dash has a crack by the glovebox, bigger backseat is missing .., door lock 'button' thing is broken on driver's and rear pass. side, driver's seat is ripped to hell.. this girl is in BAD shape.. but someone's gotta give her love, right?
I will be adding more pictures of the beginning of the day aka pulling the motor from the new lil' ghost, because I didn't realize my friend didn't put a memory card in ... so I gotta wait for him to get me the cord ... so yes. here are some pictures of the "swap party".
Edit: added pictures from the beginning of the day
Pullin' the D from my new wago
and Paul's contribution for the day :P
So, first thing I did - CLEAN THE BAY!
Before:
After:
Left is 2.5 and right is stock - 1 5/8
now, right is 2.5 .. yada yada
Getting the d series outta the "new" wago
Getting my motor outta the "old" car
"New" wagon is in the shop and my motor is goin' in..
Gettin' the exhaust hung up
Then we called it a night basically after getting the shift linkage connected and the motor mounted
I edited my post from yesterday with some more pictures of the beginning of the day.

Bam got all the wiring done by the time we got up there this mornin', so he started working on the a/c. Rev started working on the suspension and I played with bumpers.
In the new wago
My bumper is on the new wago
black widow! :shock:
Lemme see your thumbs
Started the first try!
We called it a 'night' after this, but bam kept workin' i'm sure. Gotta a few more things to do - rear suspension, front bumper, put the lights back in, rear seats, windshield, passenger mirror, dash, cd player, fixing the drivers seat, a good, long bath and maybe a buff

borrowed a Porta-Power from work
It's still a total loss. It'd cost way more than it's worth to make it right
The roof was hit so hard that it buckled here
and here
even here..
we have this
filled the gap with some housepainter's caulk
It sure ain't pretty, but at least it's driveable while we hunt for the right shell!

I think its rad that you made it driveable for now!
Girl U need to thank your lucky stars U have BamTec & he has the right toys

Yes, you can. I'll drive it to work tomorrow just to shake it down.

Anywho... ready to see your good's in a new shell! Hopefully this happens for you soon.

Im curious, do you still have to "adjust" the frame rail for the alternator on LHD cars?
