New family ride"72 chevelle wagon"
 

I just picked this up local in town. Turns out the guy that supplies me my car audio stuff has had it for 3 years . He used it for fishing trips.

I however have a little different plan !
The underside is dirty but spotless as far as rust . It drives great , runs great , what a great cruiser.

Watch for some updates in the next couple months!

Sweet......Is it going to get the pt treatment????

Hell yeah ! well sort of . depends on what you mean by PT , you know some people dont think of 18-20's and lowered the PT treatment.

It will be 2 toned , a gray center 18"front and 20" rear wheels. Thats all I know now! and it will be on a budget , no more than 10g's in this

very cool

Ya know, that is interesting. I picked up a 70 Impala Kingswood wagon I bought for the drivetrain. It has a complete 454 / trubo 400 that will make one of my 70 Chevelle convertibles a very valuable clone. But when I get looking at it, what a cool car to put some wheels on. Loaded with power everything, the wood, the works, I even thought about airbrushing the wood instead of the decals. I like the idea of the Chevelle wagon even better. Cooler / smaller body.

My problem is Lisa would'nt drive it anyway. She just maintains a no wagon or mini van policy.

On another forum I visit ( impalassforum.com ) a guy posted about how he found just the wagon he was looking for - a very clean low-mile LT1 Caprice wagon, Dark Green w/ wood, and completely stock. His intention was to buy it, drop it, put 18s on it, and do bolt-ons to the LT1. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't convince his wife to allow him to buy it because "they're ugly".

2 weeks later they go to an impala SS club meet, and her favorite car there??? You guessed it, a dark green woody wagon lowered on 18s. :rofl: He called again when they got home and the car was sold. :faint:

Moral of the story: All women are nuts. :willy:

Nice looking car :thumbsup: Wagons Rule :bow:

If you build it they will drive it.....

Cool car!
We had a car just like it when I was kid.
