    New here to posting but I've been lerking around this site for awhile.Found a 72 Estate Wagon that needs some help so I'm looking forward to any I get here.It's pretty well loaded and the only thing I found that doesn't work is the AM/FM. I think the speaker plug is pulled out of the back.

    Love the color. Looks like a nice straight and clean wagon needing the normal rust repair.
    If I were closer I'd plug in your speakers and pat you on the back. But I ain't gonna hold your hand!:rofl2:

    Thanks for the offer but I can fix the speakers without help and no one holding my hand.

    Welcome aboard, 65gs76limited!

    That looks like a nice find; congrats!
    Great colors and lots of options.

    If you find that the radio doesn't work, I can recommend someone to repir it.
    He has repaired several Delco radios for me. Typical cost to replace all the capacitors and power transistor in an AM-FM (mono) is less than $100.

    Send me a PM if you need his contact info.
