Love the Wagons!
Jeff, when I see your wagon, it brings back great memories of the wagon that was one of the greatest in D5...the blue and white '65 Chevelle wagon of "Ed Wise". He won several divisionals, and I think some national events with it. I believe he ran both the 283, and the 327 in that great wagon (the 283 for sure). I recall him running SS/MA with that wagon, and being a worthy foe for anyone who lined up against him...especially at Bandimere Speedway! If anyone has a photo of that wagon I'd like to see it here too?

Oh, and lest I also forget about another wagon that has made it's presence felt here in D7 that used to be a formidable foe for D5 racers back in the late '90's to mid-'00's. The former Bobby Stevens driven '65 Chevy Nova Wagon, currently being campaigned by all-stars winner Gregg Luneack!

One more former formidable wagon of the 70's and '80's for you AMC fanatics, was the "Kelvinator" campaigned by one Rick Rusk also in D5. I forget if it was a Concord wagon, or another model type, but it was a great car for him, and was cool to watch, because he was a winner with it too!!!

Between those great wagons and Jody Lang's wagon, I wish (sometimes) I would've gotten one of them to be a racer. It sure would've been easier to work on, and especially w/o the fuel injection to deal with....
