It is starting to look like a wagon....  Inner Fenders have been stripped, repaired, painted and undercoated. Front Fenders have been sandblasted, rust fixed, and undercoated.  Doors also got the blast and repair treatment.  Just have to get the tailgate, hood, and splash apron stripped and cleaned up.

First Drive this Evening.... 

Well out of one garage door, to the end of the drive way, and back into another stall, but under its own power so it counts.   The big girl gets loaded onto a trailer this weekend and brought down to Northern Muscle for paint.  Pictures will follow.....

At the painters...





As you can see, the Greg's have a bunch of cars in the shop right now, but hopefully this thing will be painted before the snow gets too deep.

It isn't that bad as there are a whole bunch of things that have been getting neglected (Debbie would argue that she is one of them) in order to get this thing out of my garage.  So now I can get caught up on a bunch of other projects.

The guys at Northern Muscle have been putting some time in on the Merc.  The interior has been sealed and painted, and the Fat Mat has been installed.

Not a bad price if the bezels are in good shape and don't need to be re-chromed.  It would be nice if he posted some pictures.  The wagon does use the same taillights as all other Monterey's.





Or on the back of a Chebbie, if you prefer....

Do they re-pop any part of that taillight?
