From what i have gathered, chevy never produced a corvette wagon. It was a somewhat popular add on from greenwood and another company for the c3 when wagons were not such an eyesore. There was a prototype c5 wagon that i dont think ever made its way to an actual car. Havent seen anything on a c4 though, must be custom. Poor car

Was that the "Corvette Chaser"?

In the late 80s I saw a car magazine with a Caprice Station Wagon called the Corvette Chaser. It had the L98 and Vette 84-87 wheels.

I did a search and this is what I found

The only thing uglier than the C5 wagon is the 50th Anniversary C5 wagon.

John Greenwood was a well respected Corvette racer in the 60's and 70's. He was a perpetual winner over many years, helped with the development of the car you are now driving, and developed many aftermarket products and kits for the C3 and C4 Corvettes. You would be well advised to retract your comments on who you would like to shoot in the head. You are a bug on a windshield compared to John Greenwood.

The old Nomad was a very well done wagon that looked like the Corvette of its era. Anything else just looks stupid.
