The Station Wagon
We have lots of threads on various types of vehicles here -- off-road vehicles, UniMogs et al., Vanagons, SUVs, small SUVs, etc.
I thought we might have one on the station wagon - just a regular car -- or a sports car -- with no trunk and instead a long bed in back. When I was a kid, we called it the way back. They can be utilitarian and reliable: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1319154606.jpg |

I'm told the BMW wagons handle better than the sedans (better wt. distribution). |

I love my wagon. It took me two months to find a rear wheel drive manual sport package and I had to go to Pennsylvania to get it.

Good thread! I've had a few station wagons over the years but this one......;)
A perfect condition '69 145S...no rust.....original paint and interior.....stock except for SU carb upgrade! Bought it on eBay for approx. $1,400.00!!! I was the 3rd owner. Sold it last year to a local guy who is a Volvo nut and 914 guy....but I always loved the 145's the best! Love the bucket seats and 4 on the floor! :cool: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1319157006.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1319157052.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1319157115.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1319157142.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1319157187.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1319157248.jpg |

I get dogged by my boss because I like wagons. I would have a CTS-V wagon if I could afford it. Our 528 wasn't a rocket but we really liked it.
I really like my Protege 5. It's slow as anything but it is a hoot to drive. Bob Lutz was on Wind Tunnel recently. What would be his choice of cars if he were only able to have 1 forever? CTS-V Wagon!!!:) |

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1319158053.jpg We had a Volvo 960 wagon before these two, no pics though. I have many fond memories of riding in the back of grand pap's big old wagons as a kid. |
