    I want to get back to Galveston, if for no other reason than the railroad museum there, and the Houston junkyards.

    When I got the wagon, I had three Vettes. One of them was a 73. It had the Rally Wheels on it. The very first thing I did was put those wheels on the wagon. I sold that Vette. I kept the LS6 and am about to sell it. The attached picture is of the Vette going to its new owner with the wheels that came on the wagon. Go to page 5 of the garage for more pictures.

    Beautiful wagon, Paladin. Hang in there; wagons are gaining in their popularity but we've known all along how cool they are.
    I'll bet you don't have a hard time finding Corvette owners to hang out with; especially owning one as nice as yours.

    Yeah, I'm in a local Corvette Club and every now and then I drive the wagon just because...Frankly in my experience the wagon gets more smiles to the gallon than the Vette.

    Six years I have had "Sarge". In all that time I have seen less than a handful of classic wagons. I get around pretty good and thought that surely by now I would have seen a few...None...I guess I'm lucky to have mine, but I'd enjoy sharing the joy with others.:-(

    Understood...i myself dont drive my 68 near as much as i should but every time i do i get the same comment, " I hear station wagons are making a comeback" from someone checking it out...( i hear the same thing about old school vans which i love too)..so all of us wagoneers i guess better get our cars out more for the world to see to share the love and spread the hobby hopefully!!:rolleyes:

    I'm a little behind, just saw this thread. I'm in Houston and love long roofs too. Sarge looks like a lot of fun. I'll have my new builds on the road soon maybe we will see each other around town.
