    Hi I joined a while ago and this is my first post.I collect wagons.I started collecting 1/24 & 1/25 model car wagons and eventually moved on to the real thing.I currently drive a 1985 Chevy Caprice Estate wagon,and a 1994 Chevy Caprice Estate wagon.My first wagon was a 1992 Olds Custom Cruiser(purchased in 2008)which is being stored along with my 1988 Ford Country Squire.

    What got you interested in wagons? I'm always interested in why someone likes a particular make or body style. Personally, we never had wagons when I was growing up, while all of my friends had wagons in their family fleets. I was deprived!
