    Hi all, I just joined this forum after having a crazy idea of finding a first-gen Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser for a special event next year. The Custom Cruiser was the car I rode around in as a kid in the 70s.

    I'm currently in Pennsylvania (Philly suburbs) but born and raised in Detroit so I'm somewhat familiar with these cars from my youth.

    I'll write a more detailed post about what I'm looking for (and why) in the General Discussion forum, since it will probably get seen more there. Looking forward to sharing my story and maybe becoming a wagon owner!

    Thanks guys. I posted more details in the General Discussion forum, but basically I am looking for the same wagon my family used to own (mid-70s Olds Custom Cruiser -- not sure of the exact year) to drive to an upcoming family reunion next summer. I'll be driving it from Philadelphia to northern Michigan and back -- the great American road trip!
