My wagon!

so this car holds sentimental value to me already, i go to pick up the car with my brother, 15 minutes into the trip my dad calls us to tell us our grandmother passed away just now, RIP Mildred Jones Caldwell. I get there, and the f_cking idiot selling me the car let his friend borrow the basket for the roof! I will get it on fri. hopefully. anyways, i get home and its pouring rain, so no pics until i got to work the next morning.

Who the hell paints their hood like this? Its almost as bad as the rusted hood phase. Unless your the karate f_ucking kid, you shouldnt put the rising sun on your cars forehead!

so, in between doing alignments, and tires, and eating, i did this, along with bleeding the brakes, when i test drove her there was no fluid in the reservoir! also cut 3 coils off the front, 2 off the rear, until i order full coilover suspension. also found trailing arm bushings laying around the shop! ill put those in when i do the rear discs. did a alignment and installed the hood.

    Looks pretty sweet. I see a lot of wagons with funky hoods. The wagon hoods get no respect.

    still need to lower the wagon more, also looking into a coilover kit. Question, i want to get coilovers for a crx so i can ride low without having to worry about it being too bouncy for my kid. should i go with crx susp, or da susp?

    the badge was vandalized along with the hood. i meant to go to the junk yard and find a new one, but who wants to get mud in their car after it rains? not me.

    these were going on the rex, but i think i might put these on the wagon, and put skunk 2s on the rex! after all, it is going to be my road race car.
