Here's why I'll probably be listing a boat load of parts soon!

Karl Hoh · 05-15-2006, 08:23 PM

That's cool! It looks longer than your trailer.

Longhorn Man · 05-15-2006, 08:43 PM

THAT is friggen sweet. We need more pics, and tons of details.

RicksTrucks · 05-15-2006, 08:47 PM

Clean ride.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 05-15-2006, 08:50 PM

Sweet looking wagon... More details please..

**uncle** · 05-15-2006, 08:56 PM

Bought it from the original owner, has p.s.,air,auto. It has very little rust. I have not heard it run yet. Gonna be busy trying to sell parts now to pay for it. So, it will be on the back burner like the other 998. Thanks Tim.

**Joesjunk** · 05-15-2006, 10:34 PM

Cool!!! You know I like wagons!!! More pics please!! I like that year too!! I see your putting the 1 ton to work! How many miles have you put on it now?

shifty · 05-15-2006, 11:15 PM

cool stuff, the big, fat guy from horsepower TV (the one that looks like the midget screaming "de plane, de plane!" on that old TV show) is always goin on and on about how he loooooves some wagons.

would i be wrong in asking how much you picked that thing up for? you find a 69-72 chevelle yet? i want one

Jerry Jones · 05-15-2006, 11:24 PM

that is awsome

**uncle** · 05-16-2006, 05:14 AM

Hey Joe, I've clocked over 3000 miles on the 1 ton.

Tropical Snowstorm · 05-16-2006, 05:27 AM

What part of Atlanta are you in? I live in Decatur and I still have my first car, a 65 Impala convertible. Looks like a great find, let me know if you need any help, I went through basically everything on my 65.

68C15 · 05-16-2006, 07:57 AM

WOW!! a big block 65 wagon!!
if I could find one of those the wifes Lesabre would be gone in a heartbeat.
great score

**Ron 586** · 05-16-2006, 08:28 AM

Nice wagon. Is it a impala or belair? Does it have the turbo hydramatic or power glide? I haven't even seen a bad one of those in years. What are your plans for it? Great find.

boundstaffpress · 05-16-2006, 02:20 PM

Long roofs rock! Get us lots of info. Great find.

I'll be jealous until you put gas in it, then I'll be happy without that bill.

AWEGS72 · 05-16-2006, 02:29 PM

saw one of those on a flatbed trailer going to the scrap yard

**special-K** · 05-18-2006, 08:11 AM

Hey uncle,nice find!And Micheal,shweeet!Check in pictures "other vehicles",scroll down to "Wild Wagon Project."Something different.It was an old man`s(original owner)car,too.It had 43,000 miles and is a stripped Biscayne,my older son`s first car:

Aw heck,here ya go.This is what it`s evolving to.A friend that is a`65 full-size junky is having his way with it:

**uncle** · 05-18-2006, 09:50 PM

Hey Tropical, I'm in Conyers off 138, nice 1 Special, wish my paint looked like that. I'll try to get more pics this weekend. Thanks for the compliments, but I can't take any credit for the condition it's in.

**special-K** · 05-19-2006, 07:22 AM

No,just your skill level in finding it.

Longhorn Man · 05-19-2006, 02:49 PM

Tim, that cat looks just like my dad's cat...I mean EXACTLY like it.

**special-K** · 05-20-2006, 08:43 AM

He likes to roam.

We called him Elmer.What`s your dad call him.He really did run off.He scratched Sam there across his eyelid and I tossed him out the door.The next day he was coming up to me carefully,then stopped and turned.Haven`t seen him since.I figure he knew he couldn`t tolerate the boy`s crap anymore and I wasn`t tolerating his.So,seeya!
Uncle,The guy with our wagon,now,bought his wife a white one.Not sure if it`s a 396,though.
