Yes- '62 to '67 had wagons. They actually look halfway decent for a wagon.

My sister has a red 66 Nova wagon that has been in storage for about 8 or so years. The brother-in-law finished assembling the car back in '92 less than a month before he died of a heart attack. I still remember the fateful day. We were all set to go crusin that night and just a little after noon, I got a call at work from the police dept that he was in the hospital. Cop would not tell me his condition, and by the time I got there, he was dead. Very sad.:sad: For a few years she used to drive it during the summer but has not started it for quite some time now. Maybe once my 63 is road worthy, I'll coax her into getting the wagon back in service.:D

Let's take a step back, think of a calm serene lake, paint some mountains and trees..... :D

Actually what I meant by decent was AWESOME. They have to be the best looking wagon from that time period, IMHO ;)

Unfortunately, there were no 3rd or 4th Generation Nova wagons. I think they would have been nice had they been made.

Should I go ahead and laydown 100 wagon pctures ??
:)

Ps. Skateboards?! Isn't that funny you said that? I put a board together over the summer time and at the age of 30, I was able to still ollie of a wagon. :)
My wife rolled her eyes when I said I wanted a skateboard again, but she was amazed that I was able to do so many things still. (I was a little amazed myself !!!!)

You all let me know if you want to see some wagon picks and I'll plaster the wagon thread with em !!!

I agree and as a recent Ebay seller said they are the rarest long roofs around....Ya no poopies they are rare...they never made a two door wagon from the factory so if you see one someone made it themselves;) ...
