Waggin's are bichin. There aren't enough around anymore, but once in a while there will be some cool old deal from around 1955 to 1964 or so. There ought to be a classic wagon club. Can you imagine taking the family on a road trip with a classic trailer hitched to it?

Now I have seen Edsels, and I have seen Oldsmobiles, and I have seen Chryslers and Fords (all wagons being quite scarce now), but I have NEVER seen a '57-9 Mercury wagon, ever. Any out there?

And can you imagine trying to restore one??? Where would you find the parts that are wagon-specific?
