    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] Hi Guys,

    The ways things look now i'm going to pick up my wagon on Sunday:).
    It's a '79 Lesabre wagon,i think its a limited( 4 portholes) but not sure.
    403, full load, power windows,locks,seat etc.
    NO rust,original paint and only 118000 kms!

    All it needs is some exhaustvwork so good reason to get dual exhaust:).
    It has full maintenance history,build sheet, and 8 track with tapes.........

    I don't know how to post pics yet, but i'm sure i'll figure it out soon.
    In the meantime i love reading everything on this forum,i'll let you guys know when i get it!

    Thanks guys,
    I guess i'll give you guys some info about myself.
    Moved here from Holland 8,5 years ago and had my fair share of "classics".
    This will be my second wagon,bought a 77 LTD II last year but it was too far gone so i sold it.
    Always had a weak spot for wagons but they are hard to come by here in Southern Alberta so after i spotted this one,i spent some time convincing my wife,lol, and went for it.
    If all goes well i'll be driving her home on Sunday:2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    Nice wagon, BD! Your story sounds somewhat similar to mine. I picked up my Safari in December, 2012 in Wisconsin. Where did you find yours?

    Welcome to the Nuthouse we call home. You're going to fit in just fine around here. Great wagon, too. Only one thing, it is not a LeSabre wagon. Being a 4 port hole model, and with the grill/turn signal combination, you have the more up-market Electra Estate Wagon.

    most of the time 3 port holes are on lesabre models. 4 port holes are on electra cars and estate wagons. limited is an option on top of whatever model the car is.
    keyword being "most"
