That is a Great looking Eagle, keep up the good work!
Some places here in the US spray a oil and diesel mixture all over the chassis to prevent the salt from the snowy road from rusting the car out.   Might be an idea to consider if you are using it for winter a lot.

Those chrysler wheels look good on that car, not many "modern" wheels work on an Eagle.

Curious if you added a second windshield washer pump or if it came with 2 ?

I remember someone in the Eagle group put wiper arms on their Eagle from a 90's jeep cherokee to have newer style wiper arms.  I wonder if a rear wiper arm from a cherokee would fit the rear of the Eagle and sportabout as well?  
It might be a bit shorter as the cherokee has a smaller glass area, but is worth a try, and maybe a longer wiper would make up some of the difference if there is any.

The Cherokee was an AMC design just carried on by Chrysler.
