    hello , i am a longtime wagon fan , about 40 years now . have wheeled and dealed so many wagons and muscle cars over the years but always like the wagons most . i'm a mopar fan but love all the 50',60's,70's wagons of all brands .

    i'm torn right now about selling a couple of wagons my bro and i bought to fix up and now not sure about keeping them ?

    i had them for sale for about a year (didn't push hard to move them ) but our other hobby , dirt track racing , has lost a lot of our interest now with some rule changes that are gonna cost us too much to have any fun in that sport . so the wagons are starting to get my interest again .

    we have 2 1964 dodge wagons . one is a 330 that came new with a 383 2bbl and a 4 speed trans , it is from california . i know it sounds odd but it's a real 4 speed car .

    the other is a 440 model wagon that came with a poly 318 and is from utah . the utah car had bad rust in the floors so they were cut out to make a drag car with (my former passion was drag racing ) .

    we are getting thoughts again of doing the drag car and putting the 4 speed car back on the road with a healthy 440 and the 4 speed . i dont have the orig. 383 anyways .

    seeing pics on your site here is making me want to do the wagons again , thanks , ted evans , ravenna , mi.

    Welcome Madcowl. Glad to see you're getting back into the wagons. They're great cars and you've come to the right place since you seem to realize that!
