    Light cleaning under the hood. A bunch of burnt coolant was stuck to the top.

    New RLCA's because the old bushings were seized so bad i had to cut the arms to remove them.

    New spark plugs and wires and more light detailing under the hood!

    Coming along fine. You can tell that wagon has low miles and hasn't been screw with by the condition of the engine bay. Very clean. Original clamps and lines.

    Update: Wagovan has reached driver status. At the moment it needs absolutely nothing. I drove it to a town about 1.5 hours round trip and it didn't skip a beat. 35 mpg at least doing 75-85 mph. Just wish it had cruise!

    It needs more pictures to be shared sliding sideways in the snow!

    Great upgrades. Is seat pan swap easy to do?

    The seat pan swap did not work for these seats. totally different seat pan. I couldn't find anywhere to mount the seat pan to the seat. I ended up bolting in 2 of the 4 bolts and got some of the old brackets to extend the new seat. It didn't look the neatest but it worked.
