84 heat index 85, 5 mph wind, 61% humidity. Damn nice day for a change.
It's rained most of the day here.
Whats your guys opinion on grandpas station wagon? Keep it as it is original or make it something i want? Im not worried about any resale because i dont plan on ever getting rid of it. I like it and it drives nice but it is starting to rust out the rear quarter panels and tailgate. Interior is in fair shape but parts are old so im scared to do anything but barely sit in it. Its going to need work one way or another. As is i drive it a dew times a year but my goal is to drive it more, id like to take it on trips and use it and i wouldn't mind making it my own. What do you guys think? I would love to see it similar to this one.

I like restored ones, but you need to do what you like.

Down to 57 here tonight.
If it was mine I'd restore the body and suspension,then LS it with a modern drive train. Then you will have a modern reliable vehicle that with the over drive trans will get you decent mileage.
Besides it will piss off the tree huggers.

Do you really want to 40 to 50k into a restoration of a rusting worn out four door station wagon?
Station wagons are cool Ken.
Drivetrain its all rebuilt and runs and works like new. Mileage would be nice.
Probably, it means something to me as stupid as it sounds. Ive spent more on less.
Overdrive transmission will get you that and do a fuel injection swap on the motor.
And it fits all my kids and then some
Overdrive would be nice , im hoing to look at grandpas logs and see what its been getting for mileage. It tuns awesome, blows cold air. The whole car is in really good shape except the start of rust in the back, thats from the stupid power bsck window seal thats been leaking into the panel.
