These wagons have been around a long time. For what a rear would cost this might be a good car to buy. I like them. I think that if I had to have a family car this is what I would get. I also have seen a four door so you could have the family grocery getter take the kids to school. and the have the regular vette.
I'm pretty sure a BB would fit since thats what was on mine when I bought it.

How did they manage to get a big block under a small block hood???
Actually it's not so far fetched as long as a low-profile intake and air cleaner assembly are used it is entirely possible.

Hey Fireball,

They actually let that thing in at Carlisle. I didn't notice it, or maybe I'm subconsiously forgetting... :lol: :flag

"Valued at $24,000". By whom? The Association of Illegitimate Appraisers for Unique Vehieles Worth Nothing)?

I emailed the seller and she swears up and down that it was built this way by Chevrolet and that she has an appraisal for the value. I told her to scan it and post it.
