Whats up everyone! Names TJ, I decided to make a thread, not really a build but more for me to keep track of the car. Little background, first wagon was a RT, then sold it. Picked this up last year, and well its been beat up lol. Now I've been motivated to keep her on the road so here it goes!!

First RT:

Then those wheels went on the hatch then this happened: :hopelessness:

Now I'm taking care of maintenance and trying to get it back to it's full potential. It will stay jacked up on steelies for winter. Plan is to get fenders and get her all cleaned up again! Hope you all enjoy!

    Its been a while but I did a few things to keep her alive. New windshield! Mine was leaking, so of course it had rust. I fixed it then drove with no windshield to the shop when it was 10 degrees lol

    No pics but this is what else I've done:
    Got another set of fenders that needed painted
    Clear corners
    LED lights for corners, and interior
    New bushings through out out, LCA's, sway, ball joints etc
    Also in the process of putting sound deadened through out the car to quite it down
    New drums, shoes, springs and cylinders

    Have a set of full mudflaps and EDM tails to go on when good weather comes around :)

    Wagon looks good. Nice work! I believe Prennro did some color matching for his brown interior with Home Depot.

    Had some fun today! Painted and installed my center console. Redid my headliner. Fixed my rear cargo light and made it LED. New Energy Suspension sway bar and end links, and brand new Moog front lower LCA's!

    Where did you get tail light gaskets, if I may ask?
  • Queef|ChiefQueef|Chief Wagonist
    I just made them, you can get foam from a craft store and cut it out to make a gasket. They work like a charm too!

    Sweet rides. That center console is REEEALLY nice. I kind of want one now.
    I bet that carpet was fun!

    Nice job on the cup holders. Jealous of your brown mats.
  • Queef|ChiefQueef|Chief Wagonist
    So I added then Infiniti window visors to the wagon. Also started sanding down the rust and coating in in POR-15 then paint them. In the process I decided to get out and enjoy the day and go for a bike ride!!!!

    Overall a good day :)
  • csshaz3csshaz3 Band Wagon
    What Infiniti window visors are those? Looks good!
  • Queef|ChiefQueef|Chief Wagonist
    They are off a QX4, you have to trim them up but they fit pretty close
