    Wagons Ho !

    Hello,..... my name is Glenn, .... and I'm a Wagonholic. No need to say prayers, it's not a repairable desease.

    My Wagon:

    It's been a Stock Class Drag Car, a Super/Stocker, and a Pro/ET Drag car for more years than I know. It's street legal and my wife and I enjoy taking it out and keeping the neighbors awake and aware :tiphat:


    I'm trying real hard to talk myself into turning it into a real street friendly driver so we can take a bunch of our savings and hit the beautiful back roads of the USA for a month or two and enjoy seeing the USA in our Chevrolet. :2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    I come from the mind set that I believe that I can have my cake-and-eat-it-too, all it takes is great planning and hard work.

    Here is a picture of my all Custom Model A Sedan that I built too:

    ...and my HotRod Coupe that I built and have had now for 28 years....

    Cheers ! :drink:

    N I C E wagon...drag car...maybe soon to be a touring wagon. What a life you and your wagon have had together. And it sounds like there sooo much more to come. :yahoo:Love it!

    Judging by your other cars...you might be a little handy to have in the garage ;)

    The pictures are awesome. Keep them coming if you decide to revise your wagon.

    Thanks for the intro, although there is another place for intros, but who's looking :hide:. A little background, a little forground and a few pictures...it's all good for me (y) Stick around hope to hear more from you. :)

    Thank You!
    I traveled this wonderful land of ours selling, educating and doing R&D for TRW, Champion, Carter and FelPro for 30 years and was so busy doing my job in shops and at race tracks that I never really got to enjoy it.

    Now I want to ..... $5.00 a gallon gas or not, you only live once!

    :cheers:

    WagonHolics only have one cure - Another one! :Welcome::biglaugh:

    I had one of those, coming out of the Army, back in 1968. Mine was a 6-banger. After driving a few Mopar Hemis, before that one, I learned all about passing from the back. :biglaugh: I saw more rear-view mirrors than I can count. Glad you found a way to pass those schmucks that passed mine! And a classy way too! Very nice.:thumbs2:
