New guy, pic of my '78 Lemans wagon

[TylerW]

Hey guys, new member here.

I am heavy into wagons, so I thought I would share a pic of my newest wagon, a 1978 Grand LeMans Safari.

This has an LG3 305/TH350, F41, 97,000 miles. Color scheme is 69 Chesterfield Brown with 59 Frost Beige inset.

It's far from perfect, needs some front end work and interior work but it's a good runner.

Hey guys...thanks for the nice words.

I actually had another LeMans wagon before this one..an '81 with that 1-year front end.It was a V6 car and although solid and a good driver, smoked terribly so I just wasn't enthused about keeping it.

This car has that Camel interior, and I have my work cut out for me on that one. The PO took it upon himself to "repair" the cracks in the dash and at the same time repaint most of the interior panels a lighter "desert sand" color.

The good news is that he didn't get the upper door panels..whew.

I'm driving this car every day now and fighting through the common problems, like the carb and a first-thing in the morning rad drip.

I'm in North Alabama btw.
