    Hi guys, new to the site, but not to wagons! I currently have an `88 Caprice Estate that I absolutely love! When I was younger, I had an `83 Custom Cruiser, and just recently sold my `89 Volvo 240 Estate to a good friend of mine.

    Anyway, here's a picture of the `88:

    And here's the `89:

    Hi Hoop

    How long have you had your '88? Is it a family hand me down? It looks great, love the blue. Got any pics of the interior?
    :Welcome: to the forum, hope to see you around.


    :cheers:

    First, thanks guys!

    Fannie, I have had the `88 for about two months now. I would love nothing more than to have had it been a family hand-me-down, but my mom was never a fan of wagons! The `89 I owned for the past five years. Has 277k on it and it's still going!

    As for the interior, I don't have any shots of it yet. I am a bit embarrassed by the oh-so-common sagging headliner, which is being held up with old glue and some staples. The car will soon be going into hibernation for the winter, and the first thing on my list of things to do next spring is the headliner.
