Thread: The Race wagon

Damn, nothing like a hella flush wagon.

swap out cam, change the heads, a smidge of forced induction.

inspiration

no so sure why it needs boost. it's a big block and the thing weighs like 9,000 pounds.

just because boosted wagon is awsome.

and i had it scaled its only 4695 with me in it


my dad i are restoring his currently mine will be low n loud his is the Cadillac version with power everthing, heated windows, radio, cruise etc.

not sure why your car needs to be stupid low... wait a second.

hes a bad influence.....

moar low? moar pics?

I want! I have a soft spot for wagons from the 60s and 70s. Keep up the nice work. One sick ride for sure!

well theres a rebuilt quick ratio box going in next weekend 12:1 vs the old 16:1. cuts almost a whole turn off the lock to lock.

getting bored of the honeycombs. need ideas nick?

i kinda like the WELD RT-S in 15x10 for the rear



maybe chrome with less offset?


year one came out with a nice 17x9 rallye, honeycomb and mesh style wheels. these are the cheapest and the first set being the more expensive



opinions?

my opinion is that if youre trying to ride low and dirty with the wagon is that you need to get a wheel with the fattest lip on it that you can find. and NOT all chrome wheels. i know it's an old car, but chrome is super weak sauce.

i like the black RT-S with the big lip.


give me wheel ideas the bolt pattern is 5x4 3/4s

update new exhaust installed, can drop the coilovers more but im out of camber adjustment and im already at -2.0 with no shims in the front.

dropping the car off at ansco racing in waukesha to get tubular arms made and the mounts relocated.


the motor is starting to smoke. a rebuild would be 2k ish to do it the way i want or i could pick up a lower mileage 6.0 motor for 900$ plus some change for wiring and such.

opinions?

6.0

drive it until it doesnt run. build motor on the side.

Looks good! Clean the engine a bit maino!

Mmmm.

Very nice!

kind of want to see it in person to actually gauge the physical lowness.

i bet it's awesome.
