You'll end up with rust in the joins in the pillars eventually (years) down the track. I've seen it happen on heaps of Magnas

Fair comment, however, that'd only be with equal or better driver.

The wagon was setup for handling, power came later.
The rear end may not be as sophisticated as the FTO, but you'd be surprised what it's like on twisties.

And yeah, I'll get it back on the road... some day. :lol:
A good tune and new bushes all round is all it mainly needs... :roll:
