| Gotta thank Mike ( DBeaSSt) for finding this little gem for me. It was another member's wagon that was kinda tossed and forgotten about for over 2 years. My wife and I headed down for a quick trip to his farm yesterday to check this wagon out. http://gmlongroof.4umer.com/pictures-signature-testing-f11/a-trip-to-mike-s-wagon-farmdialup-beware-t400.htm It may not look like a creme puff....but I am very excited about this project  It is a '96 RMW with cloth red Limited interior (which is totally MINT). I won't be able to take it to WagonFest this year...but will be driving it home from Mikes on the way home from the 'Fest You can not beat the wagon community....you guys have all been great since I have been back. Thank you again Mike!! Here is the newest Wagon project (drum roll) lol I know it is no head turner...but I have plans!    And the best mod the past owner did.....shake those hips baby!  |

| Thanks Billy!  Yes this wagon was left for dead for over 2 years in a parking lot. Dang.. Crovo, Mike will have to tell us as I did not know the name (you might though) I thought of you when I saw this wagon.....ohh....cloth Limited seats and such a pretty color  Didn't you put a set in the DCM wagon you had? Chris ps. Updates on your WB4???? I know I gotta call you one of these days... |

| Wow, just couldn't wait Chris could ya? Guess I'll actually have to sell it to ya know. The wagon belonged to a WAIL member, Chris (hey I just noticed that!) Not sure I should go around posting last names and such on a public forum though.  The more I look over this wagon, and with Chris scouring every inch of it, this really does appear to be a diamond in the rough. I'm looking forward to it's progress! Knowing Chris, it'll be quite a looker in a fairly short period of time! And I finally get a Class III wagon hitch! Wohoo! EDIT: I'm still just so impressed that after 2+ years of sitting, she just runs so well with very little work! |

Yes...I was itching to post up since 10am this morning. LOL!!! I was starting to think you wised up and decided to keep it. I have to say it really purrs too....the miles do not line up with the interior or engine feel on this wagon. The interior is in the BEST shape out of any of the other stock wagons I have ever bought. Man I can't wait to get it down to SC!!!  |

| Excellent score, Chris! Limited red cloth on a white woody. Is that rare? I sure can't remember seeing that combo. _________________  |

I chatted with Fred a bit after I picked it up. He said the only white Roady with red Limited cloth he's seen was his old WB4 creampuff. So apparently this particular combo is unusual. Too bad GM didn't keep records on such things. |

| Congrats on the purchase Chris! I'll bring the british guy and the HUSSHHHMATTT stuff we bought at lowes. LOL. One of these days, after I get my garage insulated and climate controlled, I hope to end up back in this club as an owner... but I keep thinking I might get an SS. I dunno.. I don't think I could manage the roof envy if I did that.  |
