    hi my name is Todd as you can see from my login
    So were to start.We will strat with my childhood we had a 56 chev 4 door 210 wagon for the first 14 years of my life.I loved that car it was hugger orange with white top cool rite well it was power buy a 1970 camaro 11:1 lt1 350 my dad is a gearhead also.So that is were it all started he also had a nomad and sedan delivery,but movin on i own a 65 imp wagon i bougth from the original owner in 1995 with about 80k on it.Being a young lad at the time the 283 was not going to cut it so we built a 377 sb th350 2800 stall 373 rear for it and begain many years of beatn the snots out of it.I have gone through 4 motors 8 trans and broke the rear suspenton 2 times.As time went on i collected a few cars swaped parts and now the car sits and waits for me to have the time and money to do it again.So that is only part of my story sorry for the long post,but there is nothing better that pullin up to a kid in what they think is cool and showing them what a tailgate looks like blown there doors off. thanks for this forum.

    Welcolme.Sounds like a cool wagon.Bet the look on unsuspecting car owners face is priceless when they get out run by a station wagon.In most people's mind they are not supposed to be fast!

    :Welcome:to the wagon train, todd. Yup...nothing more fun than owning a wagon sleeper.(y) I had an 88 Electra wagon with a built 455. The kids in town still talk about the old guy in the station wagon that blew off their Camero or Mustang.:yup: Post up some pix of your ride for us.
