    Hey Folks
    I posted a couple adds today and I thought How do you feel about that?

    Do you want to know that those vehicles are out there for sale?

    every now and then I get a bug in my Rump and do a local search for Wagon just to see what pops up and IMO anything under $4000 that's older like 70's and older unless I see one of the 80's that I've seen here,

    How do you feel about these posts?

    Do you want me to continue posting them?

    It's cool don't really matter?

    Your wasting our space if we want to buy a car we will look ourselves?

    When I made my first CL find post last year someone said that the PNW had some cool Barn/Field finds?

    Keep on posting them, Edward! That's specifically what that section of the forum is for. (For those that are new, it's the 'Station Wagon Auctions, Craig's List and other Station Wagon Classified' section, here:
    http://www.stationwagonforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=16

    There are a few of us on here that post wagon ads we find from time to time. All depends on how much time we have. I'll either throw up a quick one if I see something really interesting, or maybe I'm just cruising the internet some evening with nothing else to do , so I may put a whole slew of them up.

    I actually found my own Pontiac Safari this way. Was doing a CL search and it popped up, so I posted a thread on it in the section. Of course, I didn't really get interested in buying it until a year later when I saw it was still being advertised. It was in Wisconsin and one of our great members checked it out for me.

    Some good areas for wagon searches are:
    - Pretty much anywhere in California. I find a lot of good ones in L.A., the Inland Empire (Riverside and San Bernardino counties), and San Diego
    - The PNW, but there are also a lot of wagons that have mold issues. Got to watch out for that.
    - Arizona and New Mexico
    - Texas
    - Florida
    - Wisconsin. I've seen quite a few nice ones come from here lately. I don't think they salt their roads there.

    You could have a really nice wagon come from anywhere, so don't rule out checking other places.

    I agree with KK; I also try to post interesting ads when I see them.
    And I enjoy looking at what other people find, also.

    Keep posting! Right now I am looking at a wagon I found in that section here on the Forums. If the price comes down some, that 80 Colony Park is MINE!
