Hey guys, I am happy to come across this forum. Finally, a support group for my affliction: "longroofamania". Looks like I'm not alone afterall! I feel so much better. Glad to join a bunch of like-minded nuts.
"HI BEANUS"...says the group.. We're the only support group that encourages spending and the addiction !! to the room
to the wagon train, beanus. You've come to the right place. There are a few ladies amongst us, actually. One of them has more wagons than most of us.
Interesting collection, BEANus. We've got at least one other member with a Magnum (although I don't think it's a SRT8), and at least one other that is considering one. One other has an International Step Van, just completed an epic journey from Colorado to (Tennessee?) in it (Check out the 'Metro' thread in our lounge). We've gor a couple of members with '58 Chev's, and a couple that have surprisingly large old Ford collections (thinking of your Mark VII here....) We're an eclectic bunch, in a mechanical sort of way......hailing from all over the U.S., a lot of Canada, and even over into Europe. Welcome...... Marshall Hey - where'd your list of cars go..................?
to the wagon train, bean! NICE rig! Yup...you are in good company here. Our common family thread here is wagons! We love them ALL.
Yea this group is bad. They have me looking for strange wagons on craigslist. And I've only been a member here for a couple of weeks.:banghead3:
Thanks Krash, et al, I figured I feel at home here...eclectic is how I describe my stuff...(here's the list again), others just think I'm a nut...but that's okay. I love long roofs, some are really long, trailers, motorhome(s),etc. (and long hoods, MarkIV) and am currently trying to figure out which/what I want next. Something from the 60s I think. I love the big Ford/Merc wagons...BUT, I've owned over 100 vehicles so far, but never a Cadillac, so maybe another long hood, we'll see. Need business to pick-up so I can expand the collection, but I enjoy the variety. Nothing I have is perfect or expensive...but all are a helluvalotta fun to drive and tinker with. My passion is getting hold of something interesting and turning it into something else. (My favorite is turning a BudLight into urine). But I digress, sorry. Each of my toys has had (or is currently getting) some sort of my own personal transformation/customization. Long roofs are an addiction for sure. My wife is not gonna be happy when she finds out I've found a big group of enablers! Thanks for the warm welcome guys!
We are about an eclectic group as you can get so you'll fit right in. We have no preference on wagons unless they are Fords. Just kidding. I'm sure we even have a couple of eastern European Savant wagons too. We love em all.
Welcome to the forums! Its a wonderful site on here, lots of information, and best of all, LOTS of great people on here.
Support group! Only when it comes to explaining to the wife, that you really need another wagon! Welcome aboard!
