wagon/runabout weight differance..
« on: June 15, 2003, 09:21:09 PM »
Hey, I was just wondering if you guys could tell me about how much heavier a wagon is compared to a runabout.  I've got a 2.8 I'm building and haven't found any runabouts in decent condition, but have found a couple of wagons.  Thanks.

-Harry

Harry, If you are only comparing V6s, then we will start with the 1976 version. The V6 runabout was 2620 lbs and the V6 wagon was 2773 lbs or the Squire was 2810. However in 1977 the cars weighed less. The 1977 V6 Squire was 2614.

Tommy, I have seen gaskets on ebay in the last few weeks. Might not be the " best price" but they are there.
