    Dodge wagon.

    I thought it was a Desoto when I first came upon it.

    I couldn't quite read the emblem at first. I thought it said "Specter" which had me trying to figure out what kind of Scooby Do business was afoot. :rofl:

    This is also apparently the first time I have ever seen one of these year cars with the hood open. I had no idea it pinched in so far at the front!

    I was telling Nathaniel that I had seen 53, 54, 55, 56, 57 and 59 chevies, but not a single 58. And he points and says "there's one right there" I was standing almost right next to it :rofl::rolleyes:

    I think that's pretty much it. Hope you found it interesting.

    Field of dreams in my books! Looks like a great way to spend a day with the boys.

    It would be interesting to find out how much he wants for any one of those Tri-Fives. I'll bet, he's holding them hostage for big bucks

    He sells stuff all of the time. He's not giving it away, but he's reasonable.

    That'd be cool to restore, if it had the Hy-Rail setup.
