I've been enjoying the vert for a couple of weeks, decided to take the wagon out and for a ride so the ECU can relearn since I disconnected the battery.
WOW! What a machine! I totally forgot what she can do.

Been taking my sweet time reinstalling the rear seats as I rather be out enjoying the great weather we have been getting. Today the rain came back so I took advantage of it to get the rest of Tim's work reinstalled.
Pics of the recarpeted seat backs and bottoms
I chose to have the rear seats redone to only accommodate 2 passengers so the extra OEM seat belt and receiver was deleted
Seatbelt receivers reinstalled, how they look when in use and when stored.
Side trim panels reinstalled
Rear headrests were deleted for a much cleaner look

My friend Ritchie helped me repaint the cluster needles orange. I didn't think painting the econometer needle would have made such a difference to how the cluster looks.

I like the way they look too. I wonder what the dimensions are of the touring rear window vs the coupes.

Haven't done much to the wagon since I got Nina back, other than collecting a bunch of parts.
Here is the latest goodie I found for my Momo Monte Carlo wheel

Finally decided to get her into Winter mode.
Took her out for a drive and I forgot just how much fun she is to rip around in! The needle hits 100kph a lot faster than in the vert.
