Welcome brother. Used to run a slant, killed 1 slant, perverted another slant- head headers cam with a 4 barrel adapter on a super6 2 barrell intake. Now running a cop V8 out of the 80s diplomat. Those are some good looking wagons you have. Amazing a Wagon has such a demand and following, but much like anything- when the mopar designers hit their mark with those.... there was nothing left but front wheel drive throwaway vans.

Welcome to the site. Wagons rule. I have a 78 318 4 bbl that is going to be a Sport Wagon clone. It looks like you have a couple of nice ones there.

Thanks for the welcome and the comments on my wagons. The brown four speed is currently being modified in the spare area so that the "newer" style tank and sender can be used. I'll attempt again to post pics on a repair thread. Also have some "stuff", for sale that fits FMJ bodys.

Welcome, cool wagons. I used to have those same wheels on your blue wagon on my old '70 Fury III.

Thanks Eric, Those wheels came off a Magnum I parted out years ago. I like the looks of "period" style wheels thus I'll be selling the chrome ones with like new uniroyle tiger paw raised letters.215-70-14 approx 8/32in tread. I've got snowflakes ready to go on. Then all my slants will have 15s.
