    OK...

    1. 1971-1973 (prefer 73') Pontiac Grand Safari 3-seat wagon (LOADED TO THE MAX)

    2. 1973 Chevrolet Caprice Estate 3-seat wagon (COPPER COLOR - LOADED to the MAX)

    3. 1973-1978 Ford LTD Country Squire DFRS wagon (LOADED TO THE MAX, with the Brougham interior option - but not with the high-backed twin lounge seats that were optional in 73' - I never cared for those)

    4. 1959 Chevrolet Impala Nomad wagon

    5. 1973 Buick Estate Wagon 3-seat (LOADED TO THE MAX, except the road wheels)

    Just a note, the last wagon I posted is a Kingswood and I'm pretty sure it's a 72. :D

    Lets see...
    • a '57 Nomad would be great!
    • a '96 Impala Wagon
    • a Matador wagon (just kidding!)
    • a 73 Laguna wagon

    I guess I could go on for a very long time...
    Okay, here's a Vette wagon...:slap:

    Nope. I just like 'em 'cause they are different. Especially the later models where the nose sticks out a lot further that the front of the fenders. I've always gone for the odd and different.

    Chevy Vega
    Rotary Mazda Pick up truck
    Pinto Squire Wagon
    Corvair
    1970 Houndstooth Cougar
    Edsel (all models)
    All bathtub shape Ramblers and Nash
    Metropolitan
    Fiat 500
    Pointy nose Studebakers
    Renault Dauphine
    Crosley

    Just to name a few.


    I even like the Pacers wagons.(y)

    Thats an amazing wagon Rob... those are also on my list... I really like the 1971-73 Custom Cruisers (with woodgrain). This one looks like a 3-seater! Its am amazing car. I cannot see the frontend, but it looks like about what- a 1972? I cannot tell those years without seeing the grille/headlights.

    I mentioned elsewhere on the site, I had found an '85 CP for sale, same silver, same wheels, had a blue interior dirtier than a toddler's playground. The seller wanted $700, but I had no money, and I'm sure everything I own, he would not have wanted, and everything he wanted, I could not have obtained.

    Who's Alex? The Dauphine is directly in front of the '57 Chevy travelling left. It's between the ugly as sin old Pontiac and the white Continental.
