Love your story. Wagons are cool, especially the odd ones. Pontiac, and Buick. I flew from Cincinnati ,Ohio to Lincoln, Nebraska when I bought mine. Drove it home. Fun trip. Was All Stock. Will Be awesome If you decide to LS swap it for sure. Mines 5.3,/T56.

The wagon is running good after a few adjustments, the drum brakes are sketchy at best. Those are next. This thing cleans up pretty good. I'm searching for a factory AC lemans dash if anyone has a lead!

Your wagon brings back memories for me. My parents had a blue one and a green one (same color as yours). Yours is in great shape. Thanks for sharing!

I'm amazed at just how well this thing cruises, it must have a really long gear ratio, but it does have posi in the BOP axle, so that's a win for us !!

Kids are amazed at old school cubby holes. We had a blast at a local car show where the wagon got best under construction.. I guess they liked the back story and were surprised to see a woman driving it.
