    Looks nice, the rust staining should clean up a good amount with some polishing.  I know because my Land Cruiser is white and very rusty, once a year it gets a polish and looks way better for a few months.

    There are a few areas that are bad but not even close to being through. I think with a little TLC it will look not to bad. Interior is very nice and that is what I sit in :)

        Is this the one that was for sale in Menasha? I've seen one around, looked enthusiast-owned, but never had a chance to talk to the owner. Looks a lot nicer than a mini-van!

              I am not sure. I will ask him when I see him next. Engine bay is sweet clean and I have a pile of paperwork to go through yet (1 inch thick). When Todd bought it, he replaced the rear sub frame bushings and brakes all the way around (calipers,rotors and pads and other things). Very solid car and I am happy :)

                When I went to pick up my snows awhile back, he was cruising around in that.  Sweet car.  Congrats!

                  Road trip up north planned  in the very near future. I can't wait to get this out of the city.

                      I love it already!

                      The last wagon I had was a 1978 Plymouth Volare.

                      I loved that car,  225 slant six (much like the BMW inline 6, strong and had some torque)

                      I am going sport one of these cruising around tomorrow :)

                                I guess they call them sport wagons when made. I still will call it a "touring"

                                  No plans other than to clean up some of the rust an keep it running. I have to focus more on getting my 535 running. I have not worked on it much lately and am regretting it.

                                  It's going to be a whole new learning curve for me in respect to working on this beast. I am going to get a Bentley on it's way in a week or so. This manual is 2 volumes. Lots of good reading there  :)

                                      What is the cheapest scan tool that works with the ABS for this car. I would like to be able to program driver options as well.

                                        There are not too many options to program if I remember correctly.

                                        PO of my car had the alarm chirp disabled, DRLs turned off and I think that's it. He works at a local BMW Dealership so it was nothing for him to get done.

                                        Inpa (another one I can't remember) are supposed to be highly configurable and free to download I believe.

                                        I haven't got around to doing it myself honestly.
