----What a rust free, pit free Wagon you have saved, congrats! I had a decent 67 big block El Camino for a short period a couple of years ago and I can say that tail light housings in the condition of yours are just about impossible to find. This was on a sothern California car. Must have been close to the water as both housings were heavily pitted.....Bill S

Amazing work and patience. Thought I was looking at one of Grant's threads...

I can't wait for more, love watching the saving of a wagon.

The ad mentions 'power up to 325hp'...are they referring to low-horse 396 or the L79 327..??

@Bob Ashton - I would love to see a display of Long Roof Wagons of all sorts and variations at MCACN including a center slot for Bill's Wagon.

And Bill - not to step on your creative vision for the wagon but I think it would look killer with a set of American Racing Mags or even a set of simulated mag wheels covers?

I agree completely Dan.

I've got a pair of 15x7 Torque Thrust D's I'll donate to the project if you're interested Bill? Least I can do for all the hospitality you've showed me since we met.

Reference to the L79 327 rated at 325 HP, and available with C60 A/C. HD 3 speed, or 4 speed.
This would be ultra rare, I've seen a restoration article on one, Granada Gold and in CA I believe.

I loath clones, buut, if the original L30 were AWOL from the wagon, it would be cloned as L79 already.
