Christmas present for a lucky station wagon owner

heres my old 1995 Oldsmobile wagon. Its O/T for the HAMB but I had a blast with it. I built it before digital cameras so all I have is old pictures. It is lowered 4", door handles ,trim and roof rack have been shaved. 98 louvers in the hood,frenched license plate,Ford teardrop tailights,6"exhaust out the lower rear 1/4. Pontiac Bonneville front bumper. HOK burple on top with a flame pattern that fades from yellow to red in the back and some metalflake thrown in just because I could. I built it 10 years ago and had a blast with it.I have more pictures including build pictures. Djohnson@Uniquecoaches.com

 

That green 1960 Mercury woody wagon is the one Boyd Coddingtons crew built for Sobe energy drinks.

 

Too bad about that certain 'rule' Scotty or otherwise I would've had another prime candidate for you...

 

Thanks, mister Good Deeds!

 

Ha! That's beautiful, in its own way...
I've been told, "No hearses, ambulances, panel trucks, etc - just station wagons!"
And I'm nothing, if not obedient!

 

Here 'ya go "old wood"

 

Here's a 1956 D500 Dodge Wagon. Its a VERY rare wagon. The motor is a dual carb, high compression special D500 HEMI, one of 95 made,The wagon is 1 of maybe 2 made with the D500 package,which includes heavy duty springs and wider wheels, bigger brakes,a three speed manual trans with a electric overdrive unit,and the D500 HEMI. The original owner was Marice Petty,Richard Pettys brother and engine builder of many years. The car is currently owned by Tom Devers and has been under going a six year restore.Not a WACKED OUT CUSTOM, but more of a rare factory CUSTOM!. Mel

 

Man, there' so much cool stuff out there! Thanks guys. Any rad custom wagons?

 

A lap around the weekday crowd...

 

this one isnt mine, but i see it all the time in show coverage pics from so-cal, one of my favorites out there right now

 

Agreed. Tastey!

 

65 Bel Air

 

Okay. Mid day bump.

 

what soccer Mom?

 

In the van!!!!!

 

Hmmm... Guess she just drove right by and now she's gone! Weird, huh?

 

jangleguy, do you have this '61 Dodge wagon?

What's funny is, I think that blue '65 wagon on Cragars looks like it's suspiciously in the same spot these pictures were taken...

 

funny i see that Mopar from time to time - never met the fellow - but that is by far my favorite wagon to date

i think his pic is from Booton

he's friends w/ Radir Wheels site / Dead Mans Curve CC

 

Nope - don't have that one. Seen it around - probably in a Radir ad. Friend of yours?

 

My little 68 polara , B block , limited slip rear end

 

Wow, that's clean. Looks like fun. Is it a radical custom?
(sorry Sir - it's late and I'm tired)

 

Today's another day. Maybe the day I find a wildass custom wagon!

 

Yes it is....

 

I don't know anything about the purple '61 except that it shows up a lot. It has an early Hemi in it too.

I sure hope you're planning on getting this for your book. I don't think you'll find a more wildass custom wagon than this one. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4710065&postcount=27

 

Hey,hey were the monkeys! I dont think this was meant to be a wagon but it looks like one and its definately radical.

 

Got it. Thanks.

 

Agreed. But this book is about what's happening with wagons today. Maybe the next one will be a historical perspective - that'd be fun...

 

Hey Scotty I'm workin on gettin some good pics of the wagon for you. Hopefully I'm not to late!

 

Here's some photos of our '51 Pontiac Tin Woody being flogged. I should treat it better...
