Longest /largest station wagon???

I cheat. Mine has a 28 inch stretch on a Fleetwood chassis.

Yeah but mine has a luggage rack.

 

Sounds like a bunch of rednecks in a country bar bragging who's is bigger!Truck that is!

 

Any time there is a contest like that ,I take out just enough to win.

 

Yours is VERY pretty. Love it.

 

Thanks

 

I was reading about the Checker Motor Company last night and came across this bit of info. The Checker Aerobuses were built on a frame manufactured for them, Not a stretched standard frame. The site states

Also introduced at the end of the year were the all new Checker nine and twelve passenger limousines. The cars were built using the station wagon’s tailgate and rear quarters mated to a 154½-inch or 189-inch wheelbase which included either three or four pairs of doors. Both Aerobus' chassis included one-piece side rails and were not spliced or sectioned like the chassis of most other airport limousines with advertising clearly stating that the Aerobus was “Not A Stretch-Out” -But “A Built-For-The-Purpose-Limousine.” A Chevrolet sourced 8-cylinder engine replaced the Continental six and most of the cars included a GM-sourced Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission.

The massive 8-door 12-passenger wagon had an overall length of 270 inches and still holds the record for the world’s longest regular production passenger car. The name Aerobus resulted from the vehicle’s adoption by a large number of Midwest livery services for transporting flight crews to and from the airport and it became the official designation for Checker’s six- and eight-door wagons in 1962.

So I have to vote for the Checker Aerobus from a pure length point of view.

 

a story i read said when GM was finalizing plans for the 59 wagon's they had to clarify legal issues as to the body width i believe it was in certain states which were going to require side marker light like tractor trailers along the body
