    I drive my wagon every day. I purchased it from the original owner who special ordered it at Ron Baker Chevrolet in Los Gatos, CA. It's a 350 4brl, AC Delete, with no power accessories at all. HD cooling, HD suspension, and a limited slip rear end. The body is original and has some parking lot dings and dents, but I don't have any plans to restore it or repaint it.

    Both of these wagons do it for me too, I appreciate the underequipped cars more every day. Less to go wrong of course. Could you guys treat us to some interior shots?

    I would like to sell my wagon to help a family member purchase a newer commuter car that's needed for their new job.

    I'll post an ad in the cars for sale section.
