Clamshell Census

Nice wheels. I've never seen any using that design before

 

Sadly, some drunk rear-ended it. It didn't go well for the truck, the Wagon was in better shape but the rear door wouldn't work. I don't think WagonKiller still has it, he stripped it out years ago.

Here's the thread.

I was hoping this was going to continue, so here i am kick starting it again. I have a 1974 Chevrolet Caprice Estate that has been in the family since new. Cheers.

 

Pics?

 

I wonder what the update is on the census for 71 to 76 clam shell wagons is. Does anyone know.

 

I remember you posted photos of your 74 on here, but it's been a while.

Vetteman has his 71 Pontiac, for the record, but it has been on hold ever since his wife rear-ended someone in it.

 

I had 2, one was destroyed by a body shop and the other I sold a few months back to a guy in Illinois.

 

Destroyed by a body shop? That does not sound like it perished in a fire at the shop.

 

I think it's the red one that the body shop didn't fix the rear side window channel rot on.

 

Ah, OK, I think I remember it.

 

Pulled the glass and left it out to rot in the sun and weather, ruined the interior, carpet, and every piece of plastic.

 

The owner of a mid-60s Chevelle that I once knew had his car fully disassembled at a body shop, then the place burned, destroying all inside. I'm not sure if he was compensated.
