    I joined up here a while back (when I first bought my wagon)
    I was not sure if I was going to keep it, and it was not till just a week or so ago I decided not to let the wagon slip away into the nothing.

    It's a 83, and other then a dent on the back driver side door it is in pretty good shape. Myself and the family have fallen in love with her in the last 6 months. To be honest we have beaten on her and she comes back for more every time.

    Welcome aboard. Glad you kept her. With all the recent bad news, you now own one of the last generation of GM vehicles built without Government Executives pet wishlists. :rofl2::Welcome:

    Yup...those Chevy, Olds, Buick box wagons are tough and nice. I love 'em. Hard to get used to driving anything else once you have a wagon.
    :Welcome:to the wagon train, Lac!

    When my dad traded-in his '76 Caprice Estate he bought an '83. It was on the '83 that I learned how to drive. :yippee:

    Take good care of her!

    Need some tires, and that dent needs to be pulled

    Inside the car is pretty good. No complaints. The rear passenger window button needs to be replaced. But of course out of sight out of mind.

    After a little digging I found this pic online, this is what a "new one" looked like. Other then my faded paint and the hubs it looks pretty damn close to what I have now.
