    Im new to this site, but not to wagons. i recently purchased my 1970 Caprice from the original owner with protecto plate owners manual etc, overall the car is in awsome shape with slight rust in the quarter panels, the interior is stock and mint! I added all ''ss'' emblems inside an out, looks great and will even fool a chevy entusiast at first glance. I wasnt sure if i was going to even buy it at first, but my wife said you have to, so i did and love the crap out of it, future plans are to repair the rust maybe drop the front 2 or 3 inches, nothing drastic, maybe headers into flowmasters, but thats pretty much all, i added the corvette rallys but do have all 4 original wheels with original hub caps. I want to keep the car mostly original, you dont see them around anymore especially from a one owner.

    Is your Caprice wagon with woodgrain or without? They look nice either way.
