    Just joined this forum today. I am the owner of 94 Olds Cutlass Cruiser S station wagon that I bought about 6 months ago from the original owner. It has 3.1L V6 FWD with 4-speed automatic transmission. It has power windows and door locks and early keyless entry system as well as AM/FM cassette stereo. As well as nice roof rack and rear window spoiler.

    Check at a pic:

    What do y'all think? She runs good and is under 100,000 miles. (y)

    Oh, I get about 25 mpg in mixed city and highway driving. It is a lot better than the Ford Explorer Sport I was driving until I totaled it.

    Also it has 3rd rear facing jump seat that is kinda cool if you got anyone small to ride in it.

    I wish I had the resources are the technical knowledge to do it. That would sound pretty sweet.

    Nice wagon, my best friend has the 4-door sedan equivelant, which he is selling for 700 bucks if anyone's looking for an 89 Ciera. Welcome aboard! I'm pretty new here too, but I feel right at home! You're gonna love the people here, there's always new info and stories!

    Right now it is just my daily. But if I ever get in a better financial situation then I would love to seriously customize her.

    Curb feelers got a full thread here last fall... :evilsmile::biglaugh: We're all over the map with low-buck custom features and mods. How about roller painting like I did mine? Less than $220 in materials. Lots of work, but does a great job.

    Welcome aboard, eh?
    Oldsmobile wagons are among the very best, I wish I had one.
    The Vista Cruiser windows are just wagontastic!
    And that Oldsmobile 350 and TH tranny was a fine powertrain.
    Even if nobody ever wrote a blues song about one.
