    Still have a old car and family car... I am a thinker... Plus I have my 50 ford coupe..
     
  8. That's cool.

    My first and only road around in a '56 Effie. But that was before the days of safe 'n' sound.

    Anyway like the wagon what I can see of it.

    A great ride for family outings (and memories) . I bought my wife a wagon when our 1st arrived a year & a half ago , but I went newer (a Mazda6 Sportwagon w/all the bells/whistles) - my wife's spoiled , lol !! I'd love to get her into a wagon like that though ... SWEET !

    Cool 55! I criuse my 16 mo. old baby girl around in the back of mine all the time. The sound of the gl***packs puts her to sleep everytime. Make sure that exhaust is kicked out the sides so it doesnt get pulled back in through the lift gate. Precious cargo brother! Big congrats on the two new additions to the family!

    If ya have enough kids you can put a mattress behind the seat and put a couple back there for long trips. I've ridden a lotta miles behind the back seat of a 55 wagon. Pop had one it was a 6 cylinder powerglide, no radio. I don't think he ever bought a car with a radio! Cost too much extra I reckon. You've got a danged nice car there and good luck with the new little one.
