Pro-Touring Wagon project

[USAZR1]

I sold a killer 57 Nomad a few years ago that I sure wish I had back.
I'm jealous of your 69 wagon,Rad. Very nice.

USAZR1 thanks for the compliments I have to admit I was a little worried posting because this site mainly caters to 1st gen Camaros but I thought 'hey this is Pro-touring" and anything done tastefully can be cosidered Pro-touring!!

PS. Thank for all the encouraging words I will continually post progress pics!!!

If you're concerned about mileage and still want performance I noted in another thread I'd like to see someone drop a modern diesel like a Duramax in one of these. It's be different, powerful and mileage would be outstanding.

You know I have to chime in...

I've been chipping away at this one for awhile.

540-plus HP 383 SBC, ATS 6-speed T56, Currie Ford 9-inch, Hotchkis rear suspension, rebuilt stock front susp. w/ custom coils and adjustable shocks, 4-wheel discs, 17x8s, etc. Getting a 150-shot next...then some front suspension goodies and a steering upgrade. I drive it daily when it ain't snowing...

Wagons rule!!! I just picked up another one this week - 67 Impala w/air that will become our tow rig....

I also have a 67 Impala Wagon in the works. Have most of the parts to start assembly, its getting a Banks turbocharged 6.2 diesel. Not going to be very fast, but should be fun.

Leave the green paint , it looks too badass to strip.....

[High Plains Mopars]

I picked this one up a couple summers ago. I haven't started any work on it, but should probably get moving on it since it is big enough to hold my three kids and one friend for each them. Solid car overall. needs suspension rebuild, bigger brakes, engine overhaul and paint. I'm thinking two tone light and dark green.

I love wagons, I keep looking for one. There how ever is a 79 country squire in town that hasn't been registered since 99.

One thing to remember with wagons is that parts are not easy to find, so you have to be sure it's all there when you start unless your doing a Chevelle, Impala or in my case a mid 80's Malibu where parts can bet found from many different sources such as Monte ss, Buick, Olds and El Camino stuff are all interchangable....But all wagons are sweet. Here's a cool plate idea for one "WAYGONE"

[Radlark]

Chromaholic I was firtunate enough to find one trhat was complete and I had a good starting base, I just finished installing bucket in the the car I will post pic tommorow

Thanks for the compliment, LOL, I know I have had them swapprd around, the shop that did them originally obviuosly didn't pay attention! LOL

[Radlark]

Hey guys what are your thoughts I have been tossing around the idea of not using the rear window trim whaty do you think? And also I have tinted the windows and shaved the door handles and side marker lights and the gas tank what doyou think??

[Larry Callahan]

I'd love to do a wagon. You should see the wife roll her eyes when I tell here I like them. LOL!

[Radlark]

LOL, Larry just keep telling her that it is the new "millenium" wagon!!!

[Clean Cut Creations]

You P/S'd the handles and gate trim off or actually did it?

(EDIT: I just read your post title.....I'm stupid...LOL)

That work would look great though!

[jy211]

Wagons seem to be pretty popular right now, any one else got one in the works??

We do....

[grand_marquis_gt]

I'd like a woodgrain wagon, like a 1972 torino, to build like that.

Keep the woodgrain, but have the contrasting colour be some crazy house of colour color. Oh, and different style woodgrain is allowed, too...
