Space Jam!
1 point 6
New Wagonist
I picked up this wagon a couple weeks ago. Super straight body, just the dent in the hood and a little tiny one on the drivers side fender. I plan on keeping this thread updated as I go. Oh yeah, I'm calling this one Space Jam, cause my kids think it looks like a space shuttle.
When I first got it, the suspension was a little backwards so I reworked a couple things. The fronts were cut stocks, and the rears were coilovers but flipped upside down. It came with another set of coilover springs so I bought some perches locally and put those in the rear. I bought a whole new set of coilovers and picking up some tokico blues soon.
Got the front right, but had to raise the rear for now.....it will be dumped again.
I also repainted the bumpers and molding, cause the sun burnt black wasnt doing it for me. I ordered a bra to cover up the dent on the hood lol simple fix. I also sprayed the steelies, but on the look out for something interesting.
Then I got to enjoy a little bit today, filled it up and went to go watch some football.

i plan to dial the suspension in more, i forgot to mention my custom top hats. i made 3" in the rear and 1.5" in the front. i want to get a sway bar and some LCA's soon. i want to go junkyard diving and get a rear lip, the front is off a Legend.
this is my 11th Honda or so, i stopped building in 2007 so a 5 year break i want to do it up right.
Here is a pic of the 3" rear top hats I made, I have not put on the front 1.5's yet. I need new front axels and plan on doing a big overhaul all at once on the front.
This is in the interior, rear is clean and stock but I there really isnt a lot to take a picture of before I give it a thorough exorcising of the demons.
Since its cooling off here in Az I am going to tackle the paint, which is clean but I want to 3 stage it. Clay bar, polish & wax, and pull off that pinstripe. I snapped some rolling pics the other day.
