    Hello everybody. New guy here wanting to say hello. Not new to wagons but new to this particular forum :)

    Sold my 94 Caprice back in 14 and regretted it almost immediately. Took a couple years and a move to another state to get another. Bought a 95 Caprice back in 17 and have been slowly restoring/transforming her.

    Early this month a member of another forum I frequent decided to liquidate his entire collection in one shot. I quickly jumped on it and added 3 more 90's B Body wagons to my collection.

    1991 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser. 94k. Rust free FL car that just needs some TLC and a fuel pump.

    [​IMG]

    1996 Buick Roadmaster. 130k. Spent a LONG time in New York and it shows underneath. Runs great and has a new transmission though so it will continue stay in service until it dies.

    Wagon 4 is also a 96 Buick. 67k. White with the wood sticker delete. A previous owner bent the radiator support and rather than fix it let the insurance company issue a certificate of destruction. It sat in the sun for years and water leaks have caused some rot issues. No pic needed since it is being parted out.

    :Welcome: to the forum. Good start as a wagon owner. Lots of places for car events and cruising in your area. Spent 22 years just north of Chiefland before re-retiring back to Illinois.

    There is a group here in Marion County that gathers pretty much every weekend of the year. Not to mention the numerous cars and coffee events. :)

    Wow you jumped right in didn't you? It's always nice to keep a collection together if possible. You must also like large box trucks. :D

    No, I can't stand them, lol. I'm a diesel mechanic and that picture is from work.

    That's to bad it would have been a unique hobby. Although one would need ALOT of space. ;)
