    Seems like the seller wants to get top dollar, but let the buyer take all the risk. $8,500 for a wagon that's complete, but last started 6 years ago? No thanks. Get it to start, and run - then we'll talk.

    That seems to be the way all this stuff has gotten. The old, "ran when parked" mentality. That coupled with Barrett-jackson, Counts Cars, Fast and Loud........all are educating people to the fact that that old relic in the barn, garage, or yard is worth LOTS of money. I can't find anything worth my time to flip any more.
    $8500 for a car that doesn't run????? Are you kidding me? What's it worth running, then??? 18,500?

    Successfully started the engine on first crank. After 40 years, this baby has now found a new home in Quebec, Canada. Better pictures to come.

    Sounds cool!

    BTW, there is NO such critter as a "Sport Fury wagon"...there are Suburban and Sport Suburban wagons on a Fury platform, but no Sport Fury wagons in any year, lest there be any confusion.

    It looks awesome! I am glad it got a good home!

    Did you replace the wood-grain?
