Someone buy this for me for my birthday.

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

Ewwww.

There are a lot more wagons I'd rather have than that. That interior is pretty awful. But if that's what you're into, more power to ya!

Well I do like the interior. I'd reupholster the seats and finish up the rough ends like the back of the rear seats. The dash would need to be totally redone. It just so happens I have a full set of autometer gauges lying around from a project i parted out. A little paint, some 0000 steel wool on the wheels, a stitch here or there. It has potential.

I guess I just like ballsy wagons. Stuff like that reminds me of what I was carted around in as a young child. Would be a fun car to mess with though. It is a 510 after all!

I've owned enough V8s in my life, including v8 gm wagons. I can appreciate a good 4 cyl and besides, it's a 510 which means plenty of swap options. I just thought it was a cool little wagon. It's definitely a project but it looks like a solid start.

As with most cars, I'd prefer the bigger version:

810 wagon. L28E. :naughty:

(Also, hit mute. Audio quality is poo and it sounds like someone spraying a sandblaster in your ear)

Its appealing. That roof rack looks like something asians would strap 10,000 lbs of rice bags to and carry across town.
