Default got a new car today, check it out

ok so i have been looking for a wagon for a few months but couldn't find any "good" deals. well i found a few but they were gone before i could get to them. a few weeks ago a friend tells me that his friends neighbor has a wagon and wants to sell it, so i tell him to tell them i want it. well his friend never called him back. so a friend of mine went and knocked and the guy said yeah he's selling it so i left work and picked it up.

the wagon had a few problems with it like the driver fender, bumper support was bent, rear driver door wouldn't open and the best of all the key wouldn't stay in the "on" position so the whole way home i had to hold it in a certain position. i went to the wrecking yard and got a fender, lucked out because it was the same color. ttok the bumper off and bent it back to normal, took the door panel off and got the door open, guess the outside handle is broken and a piece was blocking the bar from being pulled all the way. i shoudl be getting a new ignition switch today.

here are some pics of it.

when i first got it


the fender before


it even had the manual in the glovebox, lol


and the after

What motor are you putting in it, that's a balla car. Keep the stock wheels, turbo engine swap, and better tires

the motor i have now is a 11.8:1 cr gsr with port/polish head, M22x cams, skunk2 IM and RMF header. not too sure if the header will fit in an ef but i can see if using an eg radiator will help at all. also have a complete z6 and a bare y8 block if i decide to go turbo. kinda up in the air at the moment i just think throwing my current motor in it will make me happy for now till i can decide.
