Check it out..
Picked up a low mile all original.. minus the wheels.and hood 😊. 1983 wagon.. all original down to the wingnut on the air cleaner.. the seller also gave me the original wheels and tires and hood.
63xxx miles.. I am the 3rd owner.
305/th350/2:43 gear
The plan is to go thru the brakes.. fuel system.. suspension and a new set of tires.charge the air conditioning.. it blows cool not cold.. yet..😎. get it legal and safe to drive. Unsure if it will be a big inch small block or LS swap ..
Input is welcome..
Oh yeah.. we put a hot battery on it and some gas it fired right up.drive it home 7 miles. tags went out in 2015
Shout out to Minoridertim for helping me out.

Are those real, actual, original Rally wheels? If yes, where did you get them, please?

My knockoff Rally wheels continue to lose their plastic center caps. And real Rally center caps don't fit.

The rear are 15x7 GM
The front are 15x5 Wheel Vintique aftermarket
One center cap fit a little loose on the front wheel
But I paid $10 a piece at a swap meet for them so no real complaints there, a few wraps of black tape and it fit good.

You should have sent him a pm regarding selling a set of rallies to him instead of jumping in on my thread.. you know what did.. it’s called .. thread etiquette… I’ll let you slide this time tho..

Mark, Glad you are still with us. That is a hard hit. You will be sore for a while. Probably more so today than yesterday.
Hoping everyone involved is going to recovery well.

looks like the front end got pushed back a couple feet. front bumper into the tires, tires to the firewall. windshield popped out. how bad was it inside the cabin?
this would be one of those vehicles to park on the front lawn of a high school to scare the kids into going slow.
