The sedan is better, in my opinion. The proportions look nicer, and it's more practical.
- 1980 AMC Eagle Limited wagon, one of 25,807 station wagons for 1980
- Original paint, Medium Brown Metallic and Dark Brown two-tone
- AMC 258 cubic-inch (4.2 liter) I6, the original engine
- Original (rebuilt) Carter BBD 2-barrel carburetor
- One-year-only full-time ("Automatic") 4WD, may put in a different transfer case and stuff for switchable 2WD/4WD/low-range 4WD
- Really nice beige interior, the only interior color available in 1980
- Brown dashboard
- Brown 18oz pile carpet
- Beige Celsea leather seats (all original)
- ~105 horsepower (110-some stock)
- Head gasket is basically blown
- Burns oil like there's no tomorrow
- Tires in really bad shape
Does need lots of work, mostly for the engine and some electrical gremlins, but will hopefully become my daily driver at some point, replacing my Moonshadow Gray Metallic 2004 Toyota Corolla S.
I like it.
