    Hello
    I actually joined 2 days ago and thought I posted an introduction but it didn't go in....:confused:.
    So, I am looking for one of the following, hopefully in a 9 passenger variation for the models that had that as an option.
    62-71 Impala wagon
    64-72 Malibu wagon
    Any year Nova Wagon
    1970 Satellite wagon.
    I'm also hoping for an inline 6 on the models that came with one.
    Unfortunately I'm strapped for cash but I have 3 different vehicles to offer as partial or whole trade.
    They are:
    2007 Ford Ranger 4cyl/5spd 116,000 miles(white).
    2006 Harley Sportster 883 13,000 miles/roadking shocks/detachable saddle backs/detachable touring windshield(silver & black).
    1998 Toyota Corolla LE 123,000 miles(dark red).
    All vehicles are mechanically sound and rust free but the Corolla has some dings and the paint and carpet are screwed.
    Oh, and I'm hoping to find one in Texas, not only because of the distance but Texas has this weird additional tax for registering a vehile that originated out of state...EVEN IF YOU ALREADY OWN IT. I've been here a year and I'm still pissed about that one since I brought 3 vehicles with me.
    Anyway, thank you.
    Jim

    Any one of these cars would end my search.

    I saw those ads in my search and actually contacted the owner of the red one already.
    He's not looking for trades which is understandable in this economy.
    I have a 2007 Pickup and a 2006 harley with a combined value of about $10,000.
    If I could trade the bike AND the truck for a finished 9 passenger wagon in driver condition and with AC I'll call it a win.

    I'll go anywhere in Texas for the right car.
    I figure Texas is second only to Cali as a hotbed for Impalas so I'm optimistic.

    Take your time!

    The one thing I would like to say to you is TAKE YOUR TIME! Do your research and figure out what you want in stead of just pulling the trigger.

    I have been looking for the perfect Dart Wagon for many(15)years, took my time and for the last month have enjoyed working on my dream wagon!
    Good luck, and have fun searching! :woohoo1:
