My '83 Wagoneer

[firedriver]

I think I have finally figured out how to post pictures. Here is my 1983 Wagoneer. It has the 360/727 with Selec-Trac. So far I have accomplished a SOA/SF, crossover steering, and a gear change to 3.73's. I finally have gotten it back on the road and look forward to many other upgrades along the way.

Looks good. The thin wood stripe is just enough.

That's purdy. Diggin the little wood stripe too.

Man that thing looks classy. Loving the little stripe.

PS. are you a driver engineer for for Raleigh FD

[firedriver]

Thanks for the compliments! Unfortunately the paint on the hood and the other side of the Wag is faded pretty bad. I'll post a few more pics when I get time later tonight.

Yes, I am a driver at RFD. How did you guess? Lol

Very nice! You shouldn't have mentioned that the paint on the hood or the other side was faded badly. None of us would have ever known . Agreed on the thin wood stripe. I always think the wags and cheros have to have at least some kind of detail on the sides and not just paint, otherwise they can look kinda plain. great looking wag you got!

Here is the rear of the Wag. You can see there was some damage to the roof , right above the rear window. A large tree limb fell on it in a tornado and pushed the roof in about 10". That is why I got a good deal on the Wag in the first place. A hydraulic ram and some blocks pushed it right out though .

Here is the "not so pretty" side. Dossen't look too bad but I would like to paint it in a year or two, once I finish all the other stuff.

Awesome looking Wagoneer!!!....

Body looks to be clean...

What size MTZ's are you running?

[firedriver]

Thanks! The body (especially the underside) is amazingly clean, better than I even realized when I bought it.
The tires/rims are 35x12.50's on 15x8's with 3.25" back spacing.

Looks good!

Very nice. My whole Jeep looks like your Pas. side! Gives it character!
Are you running stock waggy springs with the SOA/SF?

[firedriver]

I am running the stock springs for now but I do see a set of Alcans in the not too distant future though. Probably will go with 1 or 2 inches over stock height springs to give me just alittle more clearance on the fenders.
