    X2... I've come across some cool stuff like that, but only when I was too broke to do anything about it (like the '58 Vette drag car for $250 and the '57 Safari for $100). Just wasn't meant to be for me - yet... Congrats to you, Builder!

    1tireman...I am considering selling it because I have quite a few cars. Too many.[/QUOTE]

    I understand and can't blame you it's just a cool car.

    I'm a builder......but I have to choose which ones I want to finish. I don't have enough years, enough time and enough money for all of them.:coffee:

    ----:Welcome:Builder. Sounds like you lucked out on some great buys. I never got good deals like that. Always paid too much for too little. As for your reasons for selling the wagon......Add to that not enough ambition or energy! PS Yes, send it to Florida...But my house, I'm closer.

    Hey Denny,
    Come and get it. Bring cash.

    Ambition and energy don't have as much to do with it as a full time job, a small business to run after hours, finishing a house so I can sell, building a new house and landscaping, doing my own electrical, plumbing, woodwork and painting, moving to the new house and getting rid of all the stuff I don't want to take with. Then of course there are the daily grind stuff of taking care of myself.
    The burden of being able to do too many things myself is catching up with me. I need to let go of stuff and finish certain projects just so I can get back into my shop to play.

    ----How much cash? Would you take a worthless check? About work, seems like we always start too many projects and never have fun. Been there did that. (y)

    OK...I should know this but I don't....what's the difference between a 57 chevy wagon and a windowed delivery? Just the pillar in the rear side windows?

    The wagons and the nomads have side windows. Deliverys do not have side windows in the rear.

    I believe that the center side windows on wagons and nomads will open. The windows on my delivery are fixed.

    The rear door on a delivery opens from the bottom up as one door (a Handyman door). The wagons and nomads have a tailgate and lift up rear window.

    Yes, My car does have a pillar in between the rear side windows, and the Nomad does not.
