New photo. Just picked up in Tennessee, on it’s way to California! Yes, there is molding missing off the right front fender, and the woodgrain vinyl is not original. The car was in a minor accident years ago, and it was the closest equivalent we could find at the time.

Update time! My wagon arrived safe & sound at mom’s place in Northern California tonight. Had to take one pic before I hit the hay. Will take and post more photos tomorrow. Only major things missing are the little caps on the rear wind deflector (spoiler?)

Okay. As promised, I took a bunch more photos. It’s not quite museum-quality, but pretty clean and rust-free for the most part. Check out the album!

My first successful repair! Ordered some Strongarm gas struts for the rear glass. Easy install, and they work great!

Unfortunately, during the install, came across some minor cancer. Doesn’t look like it goes very deep. Hope it doesn’t.

Well, I'm beginning the process of accumulating parts for my restomod...Just purchased an '84-'87 gauge bezel in anticipation of a Dakota Digital VHX cluster. Also bought some rear bumper filler corners from crazy'boutOlds. Bidding on a Grand National/T-Type 3-spoke wheel. Will post pics when I can.
