610 Wagon Goon Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Been here lurkin for years now, first time I post something. I picked up this 1975 610 wagon from the original owners about 2 years back. She's been a Cali car her whole life. Picked her up in Fresno and now she's in the central coast (831 Repin). When I picked it up the head had been off for a year or so, the cylinder bores where rusty and so was the head. So I ended up picking up an L18 engine off CL(someone who post here too, I forgot the username) anywho the engine had low compression on 2 and 3. I ended up rebuilding the engine.

610 Wagon Goon Posted June 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 As for the rear I went with 3 1/2 inch blocks and some hi jacker shocks to allow adjustment when people get in the back seats or when I haul my tools around. First fill up turned out to be not so great, I found out a lot of hoses had rotted out. I can't find a fuel cap anywhere (also leaking) but the hoses got replaced. I hated the front massive bumper so it had to go. Also found a front GTI front chin spoiler. I think she looks a lot better with out the bumper 2 Quote Link to comment
