    This car actually belongs to a funeral home owner in Canada. Has almost no miles on it, and has never been driven in winter. I do not think he's a member on this forum, so wanted to share....it my personal dream wagon.

    Finding a wood-delete Roadmaster is hard. Finding a jet-black '96 Collector's Edition (final year of production) LT1 model with tan CLOTH Limited (weird!) interior is even more odd.

    He's added chrome Impala SS wheels and the Gran Sport trim, but other than that it's bone stock....and flat gorgeous.

    Is that Jayoldschool? Always keeps his stock beautiful. Then again, for his business, he has to.

    That wagon is drop-dead gorgeous.:D

    Needs to straighten out that trim on the driver's door if it's possible though.
    The nicer the car the more stuff like that sticks out like a sore thumb, especially on a black woodgrain delete car.
    That would drive me even more nuts than I already am. :jumping:

    WOW, I would even learn to live with the cloth interior on that(until I found leather seats to replace them with). With the ability to own a fleet like that, I need to become an undertaker.

    Yep that's Lorne's car. I've loved it since the day he picked it up from another forum member. Gorgeous car.....and yes all his cars are really nice, especially considering the weather he has to deal with.
