73 Polara Wagon

There it is, the general consensus is drive it....

Im thinking its gonna get flipped because it sold cheap for what it is

I agree on that point.

It's a flipper for sure. I agree with Stan. Let's see if it comes up again.

I drive mine mine as often as weather permits. Not for fear of rain... Just the idiots that drive in it.

My dad bought this car off of Ebay. He's driven it a little already even though it's been a rough winter here in NJ. He plans to drive it. A lot. He was looking for a classic car with an automatic transmission so my mom can drive it. They wanted a station wagon with a 3rd row seat so the grandkids can join them whenever they want. I think the car will get a lot of use but it will still be well preserved. I think he got it for a great price, especially considering the condition, mileage and the options. I've driven it. All it really needs are new tiers and an alignment. It's ready for spring.

That's very cool...thanks for the update. Glad to hear that the car will be used and enjoyed my multiple generations of your family.

Cool. Like I said, I'd drive it everywhere except on the worst weather days, not because I don't think it couldn't handle it but because of all the idiot drivers that seem to get even more stupid with a little precip on the ground. Oh, yea....Atco every now and then too, just to see what it will do. Yeah.

You ruined it Gary

Well during the daily driver duty the wagon did I ended up with a new dent. This time it is in my tailgate. My tailgate was near perfect before...now I have a lumpy dent. Kind of cheeses me off...but this is the price I pay for using the car for what it was built for. It's just, as you say, all the other sheepole out there you have to worry about.
