SHOW US YA WAGON

Post by Grimbo »

As the title infers I would like to see pics of peoples wagons.

I'm pretty sure I'll finally be the owner of one by the end of the weekend :D .

A mate of mine has had one sitting around as a unfinished/ not started project for 10 years or more and have finally harrassed him enough to part with it.

It'll be a big job, as it has been totally stripped.

So I was hoping some of you wonderful gents on here could post some pics for insipration.

Cheers
Sam :)

Hi guys this is my first post and this is my first EK. Ive always had older holdens (HR prem was my first car) but this one realy got me going. Ive only had her a week. Picked her up for $1500. Shes complete and only needing work on the cluch and brakes. I wasent looking for another car. I am working on a second story renovation and saw her in the nebours yard so i asked the old girl if she wanted to sale her and to my suprise she said yes. so here are som pics the out side ones are from when i picked he up.

Good score there Jay, looks like you got a good deal. Look forward to seeing progress pics when she is all cleaned up and on the road. Welcome to the site mate, but be warned it's very addictive :twisted:
You won't be late with a 138!

Hi Jay78,

Welcome to the forum.

Looks like you picked up a good one there.Seems like its been shedded for most of its life going by its apparent overall condition.

Amazing whats still out there when you start looking.

Cheers,

Terry.
I can't think what to write here so this will do.
