    Greetings ! :cheers:
    My name is Michael E.
    I'm a long time station wagon admirer-er and am the current owner of a 1985 Cavalier CS Station Wagon. I purchased it a little over a year ago from a 75 year old man who was selling it because it was his recently passed father's car.
    His father was the original owner and died just six months shy of turning 100 years old ! The car was in pretty good shape when I bought it, and now after I have done a decent amount of work to it, she's a pretty sound and good looking (and good running) car.

    That's awesome! Tried to get personalized plates that said "Shwag" on them but was told it was a direct drug reference. Stupid Utah...:cry:

    Hey Mike! It's Ian from Pitt Auto! I just joined up here too. I was going through the introductions and saw another from the 'Burgh, and a wagon that I recognized too. I love that little car.
