Just asking WROBE....What is the big cheesewagon?

Personally I love wagons, 1800ES is my favourite but even a K-Car wagon gets my attention.

Me too!

Wagons to me, are head-turners. Especially fast ones, like the 855T5. :haha:

Looks good. All you need is some 17" aftermarket wheels and some low profile tires and you'll be STYYYYYLIN! :cat: :shades:

yeah i was thinkin some new wheels but i wanted to go for a factory look. there were these special wheels for sale on ebay they were chrome 17s with the volvo caps but they wheel was made by american eagle. looked really nice. but neways here are some things im plannin on doing to the 244 before school starts up again :angry: .

All the Best in your 'Project'!
