    Hello,
    I am Buick Estate from North Carolina and my first car is a blue 1988 Buick LeSabre Estate wagon. The Oldsmobile 307 has been replaced with a Chevrolet small block 350. The car needs a little work before it can be driven often on the road, but it runs and drives.

    I look forward to hearing from you,

    Hello BuickEstate from North Carolina! Depending on what part of North Carolina you are in, I could possibly be right over the mountain from you in northeast Tennessee. Welcome aboard! The 350 for 307 is a good swap IMO. I never cared for the anemic 307s.

    Hey B.E. nice to meet. So is this your first car ever? Not to be to personal but are you a youngish person? The reason I ask is we have a few new members who are youngish, just starting out in their automobile lives and they too have chosen a cool station wagon as their first car. I think it's really impressive. Congratulations and welcome aboard.

    You will now notice you suddenly have a lot more friends, all of them mysteriously needing something hauled somewhere.....

    Welcome to the Station Wagon Forum, cousin! ( <------------ My Pontiac 'box wagon' right there...)

    Since I (still) have the Olds 307 in my wagon, I'm interested in your 'seat of the pants' comparison of the wagon, before and after the engine switch.....
