    Just discovered this forum, looks great. I had a cancer scare and sold my three old wagons about five years ago. I had a 1955 Dodge Coronet 2-dr, V-8; auto, a 1953 Crysler Windsor 4-dr, six cyl, auto (great wood cargo area) and lastly a 1955 Ford Country Sedan 4-dr, V-8 3 speed. I am OK now, starting to look for some odd ones, right now a 1951 or 52 Nash wagon. thanks for reading.

    :Welcome: Riverslim

    It sounds like you had a fine fleet of wagons at one time.
    Ultimately, your health is worth more than any wagon could be.
    Glad to hear you are well again.

    Good luck with your pursuit of new wagons to enjoy.

    List of all the wagons

    I see in another forum, someone suggested listing all the wagons we've had. I listed these three old ones, because that is my idea of the wagon "hobby", I've had probably 20 wagons, I'll get on that other forum and list them all.

    Good luck finding one of those. The ones I've seen have big V8s and the rear ends have been tubbed.

    Check out the way they built their convertible! The possibilities for any wagon abound!

    Thanks Stormin'

    I am attracted to the "upside down bathtub" look, admire the Hudsons and Packards also.
