    I love women in wagons, it used to be a daily occurance, but has become so rare! Heck even my mom drove one! Now if I saw a woman driving a wagon around, I'd be likely to think up a couple cheesy pickup lines LOL.

    A friend of my wife's is a wagon nut, drives a real nice late 80's Buick Electra Woody. I told her about this site, I'll tell her again. She is our only wagon friend. Her ex-husband still has every full size wagon they as a couple ever owned, It's a nice colection of dead wagons in the woods. At least 6 full size GM's.

    My Fairmont wagon, I origonally found for my ex-sister inlaw for cheap. It was her first car, she drove it for a year then bout some thing sporty and gave me the wagon for free! That car started my wagon frenzy.

    I guess this thread has come to this also.....

    You have some idea of our talent. :evilsmile::biglaugh::rofl2:

    I started a couple of resto threads for mine, and we'd get so far off-topic that it was more laughs than the resto. :biglaugh: Lucky for me that it was my daily driver and I needed to get it done, or it would have taken another year! (I type sloooow.) :evilsmile:

    Well there's one link in that first list about Automotive History, so maybe that helps bringing it back on topic. But the rest, was in fact our handiwork. Gawd, we're good!:evilsmile:
