The wheels are going to be a set of stock wide 5s. I'm not sure what tires yet, I want to be able to take it on longer trips so I need to find something that is still comfortablish.

i decided to just throw all my money into the turbo car so im not going to buy that wagon haha. i figured i should probably finish one project rather than do one half way and get a whole new project. what kind of quality is that 6pt cage?

Just got the suspension sort of back together. One corner needs to be readjusted. the stock wheels are back on. home cooked beam, notched rear plates, custom painted lowered rear shocks, new ball joints, prothane control arm bushings, dropped spindles, new rear axle seals.
