Hi guys,
I'm a big fan of the ole waggovans.
I currently have an 05 s2000 that ive started to race so i'm kinda looking for a cool daily.
I'm torn between a wagon of just about every year, to a first gen close to where i work, a 90-91 crx or an older si hatch.
So i figured id post up on here so i could check out the for sale section and see if anyone close to me is trying to get rid of one.
heres my S

countless people on craigslist send me back a reply or two and then dont answer any important ones shortly there after. I wonder how many of these are scams or people that just dont want to try to sell their car. It's frustrating.
A buddy of mine might have found me one about 2 hours away though, we'll see next week!
good luck ( :
Thanks!

And where the hell were you when I was looking :evil: I'm like 45 min from you.
Gulfport wouldnt be too far from me if this one fails. I'll send ya a text in a minute
Yeah you're a little ways from me but if you are into a 3rd gen I know of an 85 rt4wd just outside of baton rouge.
I'm really thinking about this 88 of my friends. I just dunno how hard its gonna be to source the propshaft and viscous coupler for it. It has a few other problems but the body is so straight(minus paint) theres no reson not to. I swear theres no rust on the outside anywhere. It is a 6sp too. He just hasnt gotten a price back from his dad yet.
He did say it had everything for ac on there but it needed a different ECU on it. Any thoughts on that?
I just need something to last at least a few months without a blowing a motor and then i can worry about a build. The s2k is eating me alive on my 32 mile drive to and from work in the morning, but im really willing to wait for the right one.
Local guy (to that wagon) on another forum let me know where it was. He stopped in and took a quick look, said it was in decent condition exterior/interior wise. I believe he said it was red. I haven't personally seen it but I did call about it. I know its a rtawd and carb but once the guy said what year it was I kinda tuned him out. I think he said he was in the process of putting a new condenser in it. It's at an old out of the way car lot and I can give you the number maybe he can get you some pictures but they are kinda hard to get a hold of cause I think they run another business on site as well and it took me about 3 tries to get someone to answer the phone. Let me know if you want the number and I will PM it to you.
Everything about finding a wagon down here has been difficult it seems. That's why mine came from far, far away.
Has the under seat tray, a spare tire spacer, factory service manual and some receipts from the 90s when it was serviced at the dealer. I stole it for a grand!
5+ months of looking finally paid off
guess its time to start my build thread ehh?
