in New User Introductions
Hey wagoneers i just got my wagon yesterday! anyways heres the story i been searching for wagons for so long(about 3 years now) but i always ended up with something else (but still in the ef family) i've had hatch's and sedan's left and right all because i couldn't just sit and wait for a wagon its rare to to just go and look for one and actually finding one so i did trades after trades. hatches to sedans and i was getting tired long story short i traded a 1988 civic lx sedan for this 1991 civic wagon it still needs work but i love it!

here are some photo's 8) :

i mean the wagon has a bad tranny but i already got a new one that is going to go in it so wish me luck should be a interesting build trust me this car has a long way to being perfect but i love her!

    It's actually like a gunmetal but its very close to black and will give you an idea of a black one. It will be repainted once i get all the body panels like front fenders, and rear quarter panel is in very bad shape from the amateur fender rolling. I plan to keep this wagon forever and pass it down to my kid one day haha and hopefully he wouldn't be embarrassed of such a beautiful classic! My plans will most likely be on a build thread on this site but I will give you an idea here now. I have a new/used transmission going in soon with new clutch shift linkage and shifter. I also have suspension upgrade plans of course and some nice wheels to go with the color coordination, and just in case you'd like to know I will paint it white once all body panels are repaired!

    I am really looking forward to learning all sorts of new things, and buying things from this site. thank you for the welcomes I LOVE WAGONS! :lol:

    actually it wasn't original paint and if you seen it in person you'd notice drip spots on it but its was nice for what it was transmission was horrible. I traded this one for a sedan and i included a new transmission, i also replaced springs (previous owner had coilovers with NO sleeves...) with skunk2 springs. i put in new motor mounts and lots more! i also traded the sedan for another wagon if you look at my other intro thread you'd notice i have a white wago now!
