Frank's Non-Ford Daily Driver Project

[Frank.JD.Perez]

i can finally give some updates on the progress, but they didnt happen because i felt it was time to finish off this project, no. it happened because some asshole decided to tbone me at work in the parking lot. the guy was absolutely at fault, but somehow the insurance company came to the conclusion that their driver was NOT at fault, but obviously did not say i was either so... way to go people.

unfortunately i was hit in the rear door and wheel area, which is the worst to get hit in the wagon because the doors are specific to the wagon, and its not all too often those doors are available at a junkyard...

fortunately though, the hit was perfectly covered on the quarter panel by those fender flares i bought months prior



green green green go go go!

I had also bought a full primer, paint, clear kit for my car around xmas, so this was really a, just get to work kind of scenario for me

 

[Frank.JD.Perez]

Found a guy off fb marketplace who was gracious enough to part out the wagon in the same color

(Score)

 

[Frank.JD.Perez]

Being that i was doing the work on the rears i went ahead and finalized the zhp bumper, so thats now ready for primer and paint

 

[Frank.JD.Perez]

Finished up the door card parts for the fenders as well and just 3m taped them. Ive got another widebody project im doing with the car that doesnt involve the doors looking like they need to be flared and i wasnt about to drill into this door i just replaced

 

[Frank.JD.Perez]

And then today i went and got started on mounting and finishing up the driver side front flare. Primer is drying as i upload. Paint and clear to come once the weather gets about another 10* warmer

 

[Frank.JD.Perez]

Fronts and rears are attached via m4 rivnuts that are also paint matched and cleared

 

[Frank.JD.Perez]

there is still some fixing that needs to be done in the rear, i think the trailing arm is bent slightly, so theres another excuse to go an upgrade the rear to 330 arms and diff. i already replaced the upper control arm because that was sheered from the accident

What’s wrong with the pictures now? They all look fine from here

 

[Frank.JD.Perez]

Josef fixed em already

Threw on 12mm spacers all around, with the spacers and offset it closely resembles how the ec7s will fit one the car (in -0.3mm) once they're powdercoated and mounted

I’m a big wagon fan love what you did with this thing and the stance , wheels and flares really make it look aggressive.
