YELP!

Wife and I are in the market for a wagon. At this point we are down to a 92-93 245. (with the updated AC) or going an 122 wagon, the amason era.

I have owned more 242s and 245s than i can count. My p1800 drove amazingly well.

How well do the early wagons drive?
I know rust can be an issue. But my confidence in repairing rust on a 60s car is higher than an 80s car.
Less than wholly confident on my ability to tune a carburetor. (I can get them close but never just on)
Thinking for the updated AC is the wing windows will be a close second and if that does not work, Vintage Air has some good kits and they are right up the road here. Sound reasonable?

Do you all have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Andrew
