I guess I will have to go on record and say I've always like the wagons -- especially on the steel bumper cars.

Don't get me wrong I'd never say cut one up to make a wagon --- but if I came across one when I had the cash in my pocket .......

Or if any of you guys have one and need someone to take that ugly thing off of your hands - give me a call.

Did that car have Wyoming license plates on it and a couple of big cracks on the roof? There is a guy who comes to our annual Corvette rally and I could swear that is his car. If not he has an identical twin to it. It's not my cup of tea, but it's something different to look at. :yesnod:
