I added a set of wheels and tires, to help my stance out. Looking a maybe a 1" drop next, what you guys think?

1-2" in the front, I'd leave the back. Or 1" in back 2" in front, pretty standard way to go about it.
 
Got my qjet all tuned up a few days ago, little brother and his friends didn't think my car could do a burnout, so I proved em wrong.

First dude's mind was swayed after I started it up, 2nd guy didn't want his car hit I guess, 3rd yelling is my little brother. I say little, but he's gonna be 17 in a month.

The video is two videos I half-assedly edited together. The first one was too dark and quiet, and the other one started too late. So, here we are.

Yeah, yeah. I know. "Why are you doing that in a neighborhood? What about the children?". There are no kids on that street. No one ever comes outside, I think a few of the houses might be abandoned. Not a good neighborhood, not terrible, but not good. Plus my first video on my youtube channel passed 1,000 views recently, so I thought I'd celebrate. Also, surprising as it sounds, this is the first actual burnout I've done with this engine. 9/10.

I'll probably regret this soon given the lousy Spring weather we've been having. But I switched the wagon back over from winter attire to the rest of the year attire. This included a wheel swap, removing the cosmolene from the chrome, reinstalling the headlight bezels, and removing the 150lb. chunk of steel from the spare tire well.

While it was up in the air I noticed a stripped out and loose lower rear shock mount, courtesy of the previous owner, that I was able to fix with a spare mount I had laying around from a spare shock. But It's gonna need new rears pretty soon.

That's a really sano wagon you have!
 
i put my Wheels on, and fired it up for the first time since last November, other than a minor fuel leak, which amounted to just tightening the carb bowl screws, things went off without a hitch, Then i gave it a bath and took it out for a little blast..and things are right with the world again!!

It looks great, Bryan. I like your new wheels, I'm glad you got it back together and enjoying it again.
 
Got to start my El Camino up with the TBI today. I dropped the starter, cleaned up the bendix, and it started working again. The timing still needs set correctly and a few more vacuum leaks plugged, but the throttle response is already worlds better than it was. I am just not looking forward to putting the fender back on and tidying up all the wiring.
