I'd rather talk about wagons, but ok. Yes. I was nominated for best Evening Newscast. I am, or I was a Newscast Director... I am taking a break from that though, the stress was giving me chronic migraines and making me hate my life. So now I make dick doctor commercials... And car ads. Way less stressful and get to work in a environment that cultivates creativity rather than crushing it. Although I Directed a Special Olympics Torch Carrying Special before I left, and that may make a run at the Emmys this year? I'll keep you posted. lols
Congrats on your nomination, and also your decision to make your life better! Kudos... now back to wagons

Cool project, I'm impressed. Also looking to do some of the same things you've already accomplished like where you found the clear Toyota markers for the bumper, and (although purple as you say) side markers. Also where did you find the center console?
I have an 86 wagon with some minor mods but still working on making it better.

Funny thing for me reading your story was I had a blue 85 for years and I wasn't particularly fond of the recessed lamps. Then one day I got rear-ended by some dude in a Jag just talking away on his iphone. He pushed me into the trailer hitch on a pickup and rendered my little shuttle totaled. It took a couple of years but I final found my blue 86 out in Hillsboro for 175 bucks. Its been completely gone through and I've been luck finding original parts that I like. I've done a few things you might be interested in. Like you I've followed RPR for years until only recently decided to jump in.

Regardless of what's in there, I'd vote for plan B - drill them out. Do those mounting holes go through or not? Whatever they are filled with would dictate what lengths you need to go to in order to get 'er done. IE if the filler is silicon or bondo, do your best to drill a pilot hole (~1/8"), then creep up to the tap drill size, and finally chase the existing threads with a 2 flute tap.
WANTED - See my posts in the WTB section
The old long term build which I can no longer edit since my original account broke a few years back.
I've considered that.I vote for color match
They do not go through... I will work on them soon...Regardless of what's in there, I'd vote for plan B - drill them out. Do those mounting holes go through or not?
