    I have a soft heart for the clamshell wagons. I have 2 1971 chevys, '72 Kingswood, a '73 Chev and pontiac and a 1976 Olds. I also have a 1962 Bel Air wagon and a 1964 Impala. I think I may have an addiction.

    This is my '72 Kingswood. Clamshell is how the back window and rear tailgate work.

    Dog, it means the back window goes up and the tailgate goes down and in like a big ol' clam. Lots of early to mid 70's wagons had them.

    Same way I got this one lifted. I have a heavy enough loader that can lift a 5,500lbs car.
