    I have had this wagon for years. It sat in a barn for a lot of years. In the last year we have done quite a bit to it here is a thread I did on the jalopy journal.

    http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=688685

    I will be posting stuff on here as I do it.

    We are taking it on its longest drive since we got it back on the road.

    We are going to the Coker tire Cruise Saturday 4/5/2014 if there are any of you in the chattanooga area that are going look for us and lets hang out.

    Here is a pic or two of the wagon

    I also put a pic of my boy on there also

    That's great! That is where it starts, my dad and I are as close as a father and son can be because of things like that.

    Exhaust is on:)

    HERE ARE SOME PICS FROM THE INSTALL YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. I am very pleased and the price was very good. The guy is a car guy he has a hell of a 69 Pro Touring Camaro.

    He takes the time to make sure everything is done well and to make sure you are happy with your installation. These two cars showed up while we were there. the 67 Rivera with the LS conversion was awesome.

    If you are in the Chattanooga area it will be worth the time to make the trip to dayton tn. tell him that Enloe sent you then tell him that it was the guy with the rusty 61 chevy wagon.

    Yesterday evening Ethan and I took a cruise for a little while and had a good time.
