    Hello everybody. Ive been a wagon lover since my first Volare premier wagon in high school. I was gonna try to restore it but it was too far gone. Instead I got a replacement and its slowly coming together...Slowly

    Going Plum Crazy (Technically In Violet for Plymouth) and a big block 383

    Plum crazy 383 Volare wagon. I think you'll be the first one here with one like that. Welcome aboard. Got any stripes or graphics planned for it once its painted? Maybe Volare Road Runner stripes?

    I know its gonna need some form of stripes but I havent thought about which one I want to go with. Its a base model wagon so no trim on the doors and no roof rack. May be a little too much of one color. Im thinking of the blackout hood and a six pack scoop (6BBL for the Plymouth version, everybody knows the color and scoop by what the Dodges called them). Going for a white interior also

    Its taking me a little time to round all the stuff up but I think it will turn out pretty decent when I get it done. Looking to make a good Cruiser out of it :banana:

    Yeah, Mello....I remember crashedcruiser. I liked him and especially liked the creative direction he was taking with his car.:D Another wagon guy that, somehow, fell by the wayside. I miss him and wish he would come back.:yup:
