No. That's definitely a 1980 - that was a one year only model with the different bumpers and fender flares.
I've owned two Eagle wagons - one was a special order 1984 wagon, the other was a 1980 Eagle Limited that I got from a guy in PA who was losing the garage he was renting to work on his cars. I sold that one to a guy in OH who did a full restoration including upgrading the engine to Holley EFI. I tossed in brand new power remote mirrors and a couple thousands dollars worth of new old stock parts, extra transmission, extra transfer case, etc.
I need to look him up and see how that project finally ended up.
This is the one I sold because of no time and energy to get to it as a project.
It looks odd because the rear springs had broken leaves and the engine was out so the front sat high.
