Going to look at a wagon tonight....
nxspoon
Band Wagon
and I already know that I'll be buying it. Just need a little time to scrape together some money; pretty sure the seller is going to give me some time. It's an 89, FWD with 5 speed. Beige color. There is a somewhat decent story behind it (at least funny imo); I'll tell it once it's in my possession.
Anyways, I'm Ken and I live in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. If this wagon purchase goes through, it will join my 99 Civic Si. That project has gone on for over 8 years now, and is nearly complete. A couple of years ago, while all of my other friends were looking at 92-95's and 96-00 hatches, I wanted something older, something different if you will. And the wagon fit the bill perfectly. Once I saw what could be done to it (Shaun K's wagon on H-T.com), I knew that I had to have one. And then I came here, and was blown away !!! Yeah, I',m gonna have some fun for sure !! LOL.
So, greetings and salutations from the lightning capital of the US !! Is there anything that I should pay particular attention to tonight when I go check out this wagon? I do know that it has a new clutch/PP/FW. And that the driver's seat has been ripped up thanks to the friendly stray cat. Other than that, I'll find out the rest tonight.
Thanks,
Ken
