    Hi Guys,

    I just found your site. I live in Delta, British Columbia, Canada - 2 hours north of Seattle, Washington. I have two vehilces which my insurance agent classifies as station wagons - a 1997 Chevy Tahoe and a 1972 Chevy Blazer. Both are 4x4s. What do you guys think, are these station wagons? Any way, I am going to be on the look out for a 1960's to early 1970's GM model station wagon in the not too distant future. I kind of like the 'other' brands such as Pontiac, Buick or Oldsmobile (my uncle had a 1972 Vista Cruiser and my dad had a 1971 Ford LTD Country Squire when I was a kid. Man, I'd love to have either of thoses today). I would really love to find one in Washington State. Any of you Washington or Britsh Columbia members, keep me posted on any nice rides out there.

    Thanks,

    Rod

    Thanks Rev,

    I am looking at buying a new house right now, but as soon as I can convince my wife we need a station wagon I'll get in touch. Do you find many 60s-70s wagon around the Lower Mainland? Even in BC? How much does one with a good body cost (roughly)?

    Thanks,

    Rod

    I have one for sale. 2200 gets you a complete drivable car. It really depends on what you are looking for and what you are able or are willing to fix. Rev ran into a steal not to long ago but I am starting to see wagons pop up on ebay from modded to put out to pasture so I dont think you will have a problem finding what you are after.
