   I haven't seen one of those since the late 50's! They don't last long around here in the rust belt.  But, north of you, on AK 1  in Palmer, is a junk yard called "Boot Hill".  He has two 1958 Packardbaker wagons in there and a row of 6 or 8 DeSotos with hemis.  At least he did the last time I was there.  It would make a nice weekend jaunt for you and don't forget your camera.

My daughter works in Palmer. I should ask her to stop by that junk yard. (with her camera)

a very rare wagon..one that anyone could be proud to own....wagons are in a class by themselves..mostly under appreciated..

My favorite wagon is the Pontiac Safari.  Basically a Pontiac nomad.

Those Safari's (at least the 57s) have gotten to be maybe a bit high dollar nowadays.

The asking price of that Stude wagon, $500, seems very reasonable.

[Niel Hoback]

Yeah, its cheap, but the shipping will kill you!

I got my 47 coupe up here from Michigan and I live 150 miles further than Palmer for $1500.

Saw a totally restored one this past February at the San Diego Big3 Swap Meet.  Very nice wagon!

 

I agree with P. Adams, wagons are not appreciated enough.  A friend of mine is restoring a '64 Valiant wagon and it's cool!

She [yes, a female] is doing a resto-mod and doing all the work herself.  I'll post pictures when it's done.
