    Bring $1500 and I bet you can drive it home. Looks like a decent car.

    Very nice. Interestingly the wheel covers are the one thing I don't like.

    OK. Why is this beautiful Colony Park still available at $1900?! :confused:

    Is it a geographical thing? Vintage wagons less desirable on the West Coast?

    I'd have to say, to a certain extent - yes.
    Classic vintage wagons would have an appeal there - a cool Malibu, or a nice 50's or 60's Country Squire for example. But an older wagon like this Colony Park might be frowned upon by those that desire status, which is important to a lot of them.

    Should work out better for us wagonistas, though.

    Is that why it seems to me most of the good ones up for sale are anywhere EAST of the Rockies? I admit I am picky in what I want, but geez...I rarely see tempting choices in my time zone.

    You have to look harder. They're out there. Not so many as you would think in the greater Los Angeles area. Try the Inland Empire, Orange County, San Diego and Bakersfield areas. Even going up to SF and Sacramento, I seem to find a few more in those CL listings than I do in LA.

    What are you looking for? A second set of eyes can help......
