| Just a cool wagon that got some lip-service on one of the Hot Rod forums today from some of the Billetproof crowd.  Very bitchin' GM Wagon. I'd definitely rock it.  -Scott McGrath '96 Roadmaster Estate Ltd. - Last of the Great American Wagons Low 14's - But I've "Done some stuff to it." http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2762557 ISSCA#2229 BCA#43406 BMD#115 | |

| Looks like one of those futuristic worlds fair cars from the past!Those high mount tailights are now
commonplace.Even the glasshouse reminds me of a short minivan.Very interesting design for
somone who was a impressionable youth in the early sixties. |

| Same as in the Lakewood Wagons.  *Wish* that they'd made a Boxer-8 for them, but then, the Corvair boxer 6's were good for 150HP or so when tuned and were frequently used to replace the VW boxer 4's in Kit Cars and Dune Buggies if you wanted a wheelie-machine. They pulled their own. -Scott McGrath '96 Roadmaster Estate Ltd. - Last of the Great American Wagons Low 14's - But I've "Done some stuff to it." http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2762557 ISSCA#2229 BCA#43406 BMD#115 | |

Not unless you want a fan-powered colonoscopy.  | |
