E420 Wagon... A Build Thread
So I bit the bullet and am moving forward with my shoestring budget, garage built M119 swap into my wagon. I'll be posting pictures along the way.
.
I've got a similar build page going on Facebook if you are so inclined...

Thanks ZedStyle, I've been referencing those for a bit now.


Update:

The old engine/trans are out and I'm doing a bunch of cleaning before I start removing and replacing sheet metal.

Probably taking the cat to a scrap yard. If you're sufficiently pissed, as I would be, I'd be faxing the picture of the set-up to every place within 200 miles that buys scrap metal and offering a reward for identifying the *******s trying to sell your cat.
