    Wagons have become pretty hot over the last 10 to 15 years, they make cool family haulers and great cars to travel to shows, they also have plenty of room for all the things you need on that road trip, so if you own a wagon running of not, project or future project, lets see them!

    And for the station wagons that are not Hamb friendly I started a thread in the off topic section just for you guys. HRP

    If my dad was still alive he'd be in love. He had a '51 woodie that he talked constantly about until he died at 100+ I think it was the first new car he bought after the war.

    My first wagon was a used 57 Ford 2D in 1964,a bit ruff but I really liked it. Very good everyday car. It stared a long line of me an used wagons. I'm on my last wagon,likely,my 18th wagon,Dodge Magnum 05 SXT. It's close being used up. I've owned a number of brands,both 2D n 4D,but this is the only Dodge. My used Fords an Merc.s lasted the longest.[​IMG]

  11. There used to be a hunting and fishing program on Sunday nights in the Kansas City market from the 1950s well into the 1980s hosted by a guy named Harold Ensley. He'd drive his Ford station wagon all over the region and film his excursions to Lake of the Ozarks or Table Rock Lake, hunting pheasants in western Kansas, Iowa or Nebraska, down to Arkansas or Oklahoma for more fishing or to the trout streams throughout the Ozarks. He drove a red Country Sedan throughout his career, unmistakable and perfect for his image.

    I've always owned at least one station wagon, but unfortunately none of them have ever been HAMB-friendly. Closest I ever came was a 1968 Town & Country with a 440.

    Love those old 2-dr wagons. Had a few OT ones over the years, and miss them.
