Bob3 Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I've done a little cleaning and I used my porta-power to push most of the dent out of the right front. Look at my OLD seat belts! Quote Link to comment
datto510 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Love it Bob! You arent gonna change the color, are you? I love the stock colors! Quote Link to comment
Jester Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 No kidding. If I had my choice of colors for a wagon it would either be Robins Egg Blue or Orange. Quote Link to comment

Duke Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 What are the plans?!? After witnessing the transformation of the 520 I can't wait to see what is in store for the goon. Quote Link to comment
86 720 Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 NICE! Did you buy this from a guy out in Maricopa? If so, you got it before me! I was going to buy this from the guy, but he said there was someone from CO coming to get it, would call me if it didn't work out. Quote Link to comment
Jesse C. Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Years ago, maybe even before some around here where even born, I was a household mover and I was doing a job out in the east county of San Diego, these folks had all kinds of stuff laying around and behind one of their quonset huts sat a baby blue 68 wagon just like this one, but, totally straight and complete! My heart started racing and I started counting what little money I could muster up to make an offer! I quickly found the shipper, aka, the person I was relocating, and asked him if he would sell it to me. He then proceeded to break my heart, he had GIVEN IT AWAY the day before!!!! I tried and tried to talk him to selling it to me but to no avail. As we got ready to leave the guy that got it came to pick it up and he would not even entertain the idea of selling it. I still get sad when I think about, then I drink and feel better! Great project, can't wait to see what else you do with it! Quote Link to comment

I was planning to pick it up sooner but the crazy weather down there slowed my efforts. I'm very happy that I went through with the trip and got it. It's going to be fun! Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted February 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 The background in this pic should give you an idea what's in store for The Opposition. Think MX520 with way more punch! :P Quote Link to comment

denveratsun Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Gonna be sick for sure... :cool: What is the newest on the MX520 paint scheme? Will the Opposition Goon match? Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted February 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 They will not match for now. I've been getting pressure to leave the MX520 alone. People tell me it's perfect the way it is. I have a paint scheme in mind. I'll most likely paint The Opposition in the scheme and then decide on the MX520. :cool: Quote Link to comment
