    Unwrapped, catching some rays yesterday...

    Spent most of yesterday cleaning our shop. Only had time to get the door handles back in, which was a bitch. Gonna spend most of today and tomorrow at the shop putting her back together. Got a bunch of things I need from the salvage yard before she's road worthy. Also probably won't get to cut/buff until the weekend at least. But she'll be back soon!

    Back to black. Ran out...

    Fender liners are on the list. Managed to loose the screws that attach it to the fender. Pulled them off temporarily.

    There's tons of stuff that could be pointed out in this pic...

  • jessedmjessedm New Wagonist
    Ya updates man, Hey i got that card to put on my windshield wiper at pull and save yesterday. Where you guys usually meet at.
  • CharbCharb Administrator
    Honestly got super burnt out... had to take a couple weeks off. I'm moving back to Phoenix at summer's end to top it off. Shits been real lately lol

    Finally got enough bits to where I was ok enough with daily driving it. Still needs a shit ton of work, but who's car doesn't? Big thanks to everyone that has pitched in to get this car to where it is. The last two days of driving her I have been smiling ear to ear! I needed a personal pick me up in a big way. And am so happy to have my car back!

    Had a summer kick off meet and shoot tonight with Billboard (Fit), jpoopoo (bullbar), piperotto (intercooler), and hondawagonsts (S2K). I'll toss out a teaser, as Bill will need a minute to edit the good pics

    Looking forward to an awesome summer! (finally!)

    congrats! big transformation! you need bill to take the same shot as the orginal rolling one above and morph the 2 together!
  • knottyyknottyy Wagonist
    I absolutely love how well she came together. One of my favorite wagons, just can't get over that clean clean white. Those comparison shots really tell the story, you done had a revival!!! Hats off for a big project done beautifully.
  • Awesome transformation! Wish I was in Pullman so I could come out for that meet though.
  • CharbCharb Administrator
    Don't want any surprises, but the car is on Seattle craigslist.

    Almost no way I can take the car with me to Phoenix (living in an apartment, not because she's not reliable... she's super strong). And the idea of storing the car for a year gives me high blood pressure.

    Not willing to part with it for nothing. So if I don't get close to asking price, I'm just gonna find somewhere to store it and come back to her next year.

    Can't lie, the extra money would be suuuuuuuuper nice too.
