Not a Wagon owner yet, but consistently searching for one to buy.

Currently a 93 Del Sol owner(which is my passion), but I still have my heart set out to find a Wagon, and if theres one car that could get me away from the Sol community it'd DEF be a Wagon.
I love the retro look, and the room they have. The rims you see in my pics actually came off a Wagon. I was afraid there wouldnt be any good forums for the Wagon, but this one seems to be really good and active 8) .

I live in southern PA. I'm willing to take on any project. I have a body guy who does great welding repair and paint. I'm a wagon noob for the most part so any help on what year and model to get will be appreciated. I dont expect to find a RT4wd either lol. Right now im in the works of swaping an LS into the sol, so once i get a wagon, i'll make it OBD1 by swapping my z6 into it.

    Thanks everyone! I been spending countless hours searching for the right Wagon to buy. Im looking to spend about $800-$1000 and do all the work to bring it back to life. I spent probably over 8 hours in Wagon research/HCW build threads, and I'm liking everything I read. I'd hate to get rid of the del sol, but If anyone has a SUPER clean wagon i'd trade straight up.

    You are gonna keep that roof rack for your wagon right??

    Unfortunately sold it to my close friend who put it on his Festiva lol, But eventually I could probably buy it back when I get a wagon(searching daily). I'd rather get a Basket carrier for the wagon though. Im gonna use Alllllll that room a wagon has to offer.

    Welcome neighbor. I'm in harrisburg. I think you'll find this forum (as I did) to be one of the best. Lots of information, and the members always lend helpful advice. There are a surprising amount of pa members on all the ef/ee forums I belong too.
  • ekswapdudeekswapdude Wagonist

    Yeah i was surprised to find this such an active and very helpfull source of info on this forum. Im from Mt Joy, which is only like 25 min away from the H-burg. What needs to be done so every post doesnt need to be approved?? I wanna be active on here as well, but waiting for posts to be approved kinda sucks lol. I guess its a protection to keep the legit people in and the others out which makes sense

    Not doing LSV, Its a fast swap, but also I hear its not a good combo for something to last. Something bout the rods not wanting to go straight up and down and ovaling the cylinder walls or whatever. I have a full turbo kit i peiced together over the past 2 years, i'll throw that on the stock LS and get a good tune...or save the turbo kit for the wagon. Its a dsm t25, stainless manifold : / (didnt have to much choice when using a td05 flanged turbo), RC 440's, walbro FP, socketed P28, + all the other parts needed
