    Looks good Bill. I am on here every couple of weeks looking, still driving and improving our wagon. If people support the forum eventually numbers will go back up as newcomers realize there is no bigger source of info for wagons than this forum.

    @BillBoard welcome back Bill, yeah i had the same issue figuring out the new layout of the website. i also replaced those broken knobs for the rear seat this weekend, that JDM lock looks pretty cool

  • One day @BillBoard will choose an apprentice and bestow all his internet knowledge about where to find amazing wagon parts in some young wagonist.

    looking great as usual.

  • Wait! There is a JDM Wagovan knob? Holee Shite Bill!!! Where do you find this stuff, oh Master of the Interwebs?

    Yeah it seems easier to post pics, but harder to write the details in between the pictures?

    Lol, I've actually had this for a while. Like year or two? Just haven't had time to deal with installation. I did learned how to re-key it to work with my wagon key. Which was time consuming. I learned a lot about locks in general lol. At one point I had both trunk key locks tore apart and was like fuck, I've made a huge mistake, but I eventually figured it out.

    I think the jdm wagovan is just an odd thing.

    Yep there's a trunk lock for easy in & out for the JDM wagovan (Shuttle Pro) model. Super strange. Super neat. For business.


    Mich Hamlin has a proper build for a Shuttle Pro going- and the wagon is spectacular. If you are bored and want to read through this great thread again.

  • smh, the stuff that you find Bill....cool as hell.

  • I think the shop manuals have some re-keying info for how to change the lock tumblers.

    Update. I had the lower half of wagon wrapped in a silver. One that closely matches the 1985 Civic Hatchback Si. I like that look. Oh and Mugens are new, but I sale them soon, I think.

  • superhatchsuperhatch Moderator

    I like the wrap a lot! It reminds me a little of the outback sport two tone wagons. ?

  • I agree the wrap does look good, I like it something a little different

    I was really going for that old civic hatchback/CR-X look...

    I really like two-tones on Wagons! Looks great man, nice work!

  • BillBoardBillBoard council member

    A little distraction. I’m not sure if I will be able to get it registered in Colorado, but it sure is fun to drive.

  • so awesome specially with RT wheels hopefully you get it registered some how cause thats a cool little vehicle to own

  • BillBoardBillBoard council member

    New shoes for wag since the Acty stole hers.

    JDM Honda Jazz Wheels.

    15x6 +53?


  • SPWSPW Senior Wagonist

    Lol I don't want to lower the acty. I want to drive her around in the snow!

    Negative on registration. Still working on it. Its a bit of a process I got going on. I have temp tags till Sept... So I have till then to figure my life out.

  • BillBoardBillBoard council member

    I went to a car show. Haven't done that in a minute. Some neat cars. No real update with the wagon. It looks like that^

  • beautiful like always

  • BillBoardBillBoard council member

    Nothing new really. Got the Acty back from the shop. New transmission is working nicely. Still working on registration on the Acty. Sold the Ruckus sidecar. Bought a 4-post lift.

    4 post that’s something I would like one day, I most have missed it but what happened to the transmission

    The transmission, which I knew about before purchasing, had a bad 4th gear.

    I could use 4th gear, it was just accompanied by a loud high pitched sound (like a jet engine plane taking off), which other motorist on the streets were sure to be annoyed by?

    Bought new/used transmission. Found a mechanic. Some drama with the transmission not being the right transmission, yadda yadda, a few months later the Acty is back on streets!
