10 Coolest Station Wagons of all time?

I'm thinking filling it up with bikini models.

 

Hmm, yeah that's better. In that case the chop would be detrimental. I'd probably have an easier time accomplishing a chop though..

 

Saw the Surfari at Rodder's Journal Pimlico show last year. An exceptional car.

 

How has this car not been posted yet.

I like this car a lot. To be able to go out and smoke these caliber of cars and to look good doing it. GEEZ!!

Pretty close to my list of wagons

1. 2 door hardtop wagons
2. 2 door wagons
3. 4 door hardtop wagons
4. vista cruisers Buick and Olds
5. ugly is good
6. then every wagon built

I'm still partial to my old Plymouth Hardtop wagon

 

Corvair
51-53 Packard 2-door wagons
54 Stude
56 Plymouth
50-52 Dodge 2-door
55-57 Packard
any 50'2 2-door hardtop
any 50's 4-door hardtop
Early Hillman mix

 

If you can call this a station wagon. By far the coolest one off them all, I think

 

60 thru 64 Impala wagons

 

Cool, but it's not a station wagon. It's called a panel van.

 

Try this one. 47 set up with a 365 horse 327, fenderwell exit headers, 4 speed, and ladder bars. Notice the front wheels, then the Moon gas pedal, reverse lockout, and wooden column drop in the interior shot. Normally there were Chianti bottles hanging from the roof slats. Took them down to make a pass. I never named her (thought about Barnwoodie), but we did a lot of miles together. Best beater at Outriders Picnic one year. Thanks guys!! The only other, dare I say it, "gasser style" woodie I ever saw was the Olds of Jeff Courtie. Always wanted to race him. What a pic that would have made.

 

1960 olds-88 wagon,how rare are these.

 

I cannot pick just ten...station wagons and sedan deliveries..coolest vehicles of all time. I've had a few and more.

 

Cool is truly a state of mind: I remember when wagons weren't cool, but my football star brother made his wagon cool by force of personality:

1967 in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware:



1969 in Modified Production configuration:



2006 in Virginia Beach, Va.: (a clone of the original in memoriam to my brother)



2013 Modified Production:



The 55-57 Chevys in all the longroof forms made it possible for wagons to be cool, Nomad, 2 door, 4 door and 9 passenger. But the Sedan Delivery was the coolest.

My favourite:

The Austin A60 Cambridge Countryman. But only because it was our family car when I was a kid and it brings back memories.

My dad also had a Ford Cortina Estate. The woodies are really rare. We only had the deluxe. Ours was a '63 - one of the last of the series 1.

Also love:
'39-'48 Ford and Mercury Woodies.

 

The Car Craft cover shot of it at the beach was too cool.

 

This flamed 57 Nomad gets my vote, but that blue panel painted 59 Ford is a close second. Gary

 

A couple of months ago there was a early thirties Rolls Royce wagon for sale in Hemmings. Late thirties Packard wagons a good also

 

When I was a kid, I had a AMT? model of a 4 door Model A Woody that I reckon was perfect. I have a bunch of Model A parts so maybe oneday, I might build one.

Its hard to like the wheels on the second one, but it does look good with the bonnet/hood

 

This....

 

And this....

 

Sept 1968, I'm at Lackland AFB and get a short note from my mother telling me she sold my 56 Nomad for $800.00 will post a picture when iI get home. I have a 67 Nova, and a pr of 2 door sedan doors and hope to have my Newmad on the road inside of a year

 

excluding wood bodied wagons, my top 10 body styles are basically chevy models. they build nicer looking wagons.

waldorf nomad concept
59 chevy
49-54 chevy
55 nomad
90's caprice
66 chevelle wagon
55 handyman
52-54 ford
early 80's malibu wagons
57 chevy
Chevy II wagons

my first love

 

1932 Ford wagon. Here's mine.

 

A lot of cool wagons. My vote for most potential would be for a 58 Buick wagon

 

I've always liked this one.
