    Wagon showed up Friday. I need to get more pictures of it but it looks great. Car has power windows,power seat, tilt, A/C (works), Cruise(works). Interior is perfect except a small test in the headliner. Car has the original woodgrain on it but it's been airbrushed over and made darker and then clear coated. Very cool. I learned something new on this car. It's a manual tailgate car but it doesn't have the traditional T bar to drop it. You use the key, I never knew that. Car is and always has been rust free. There is no body repairs done to it anywhere. Spare tire well is perfect. The only part that stinks is it is a 2 seater. Oh well, it's a beautiful car and a keeper. I have owned about 7 of these in the last 3 years trying to find the perfect one. I think this is it. It will take a truly perfect 76 Chevy Caprice Estate to make me get rid of this one

    That's a great looking wagon. I'd prefere the wood painted on. Less chance of tearing or fading.
    I'd leave those wheels on it!:thumbs2:

    I am not changing a thing. It has white letter tires but I like it with the black walls. Only thing I might do is get the windows tinted

    Surprisingly the 2014 family car I bought does not have a very dark window tint and it's a Florida car! Many here are super limo tint which I really don't like.
    A mild tint looks nice.

    Don't trash them. Advertise them here. Always someone looking for the third row seats.

    Yeah, I would love it to have 3rd row seats but I can't justify tearing this apart and take a chance of scratching or nicking something up
