The wagon appreciation thread

Gave a half-hearted attempt at winning this yesterday. 

In reply to CyberEric :

Beats me, but he must have known what he was doing because he gave me a knowing smile after I snapped the photo. I was stunned how well looked after it seemed. 

That sure does look like a LaSalle.

Pothole cracked the inner lip on one of my old wheels and I decided it was time to change things up.

I also realized I haven't put my wagon in this thread

I really need a reason or two to not go buy this.
Other than that money is earmarked for a newer Crown Vic so I can do a Challenge build

Steve Morris's Boostmaster.  Cool unit doing Sick Week this year.

Even if I could afford it, it's unobtanium here.  M3 CS Touring

I'm back. The only car I still own from when I used to post is my mk6 sportwagen tdi and it's changed a bit. 

My parents wagon is almost done undergoing a pretty extensive frame off resto.

We're gonna need more info on both of those. 👍 

In reply to Indy - Guy :

So the mk6 sportwagen tdi is getting a new build thread here in a few. The '56 sedan delivery has been in my family for a few decades and was previously red/white and in need of a refresh. When the shop got into it they found a ton of issues and it sort of just spiraled into a full rotisserie resto. New crate motor from summit, disc brakes, new paint & trim, rack & pinion steering, new ac system, new audio, custom interior, the works. It should be getting hauled to the interior shop for upholstery in a month or two. 

56 chevy update: it has wheels. 

In reply to DieselFace :

That looks GREAT 👍 

I appreciate my wagon I was able to buy back. Not that I needed another vehicle but I just HAD to have it.
 

Grabbed this picture of my tdi at dubsplash yesterday. Probably my favorite recent picture of it
