Welcome, Wagon!

Sorry for the rainy, evening, iPhone pics, but was excited to see the new black wagon pass through on it's way to my storage garage. For now, it is a spare wagon.

Parked next to the silver wagon, the height difference from the Sportline springs and Bilstein struts seems greater than I would have thought.



Black on black, "I'm lovin it"

I think Becky will claim it sooner than later, placing her green 73k 4 door into hand me down mode.

Either way, my 92 Sportline is getting the boot, since 5 cars is enough. Drove this one for a few days, I am sure PO redid the suspension, all stock. I wish all my cars were black on black. Sometimes.

I see how bad that pic is, but the car looks brandy new. Better pics in a few weeks. Crud-on-chrome 8 hole 15" wheels on arrival.

I thought the mud flaps stood out too much on the silver wagon (removed them on sight),
so tried one set first on the black wagon...second set will follow.

The silver wagon is in shop getting Sportline steering box, steering wheel and ... seats.

I sold my white Sportline to a good friend who does not care about these items. He's a contractor with no personal vehicle at the moment for wife and kids.

He got a nice deal on a well maintained 120K 300e, but I get to swap those items out.

Fair enough man. That Sportline box is a rare item. That remains on my short list of things needed to turn Bucky Sportline+ :P
