For all of us who grew up watching the world pass by from the back
of a station wagon, this book touches a special chord. The same cars
many would never want to be seen in are now in high demand, and it seems
everyone has at least one great story involving a station wagon. Anyone
who is a fan of nostalgia can relate to the subject matter, and for the
many who like vintage styling and modern performance, there are plenty
of great examples of upgraded vintage wagons that can (and are) driven
daily. Noted magazine writing veteran Scotty Gosson takes an informative
and lighthearted look at the lowly station wagon. Long lauded as a
family mover unworthy of respect, the vintage style and quirky
functionality of old wagons is now finding favor with enthusiasts and
baby boomers alike. Their unique shapes and smile-inducing purpose
separates wagons from more typical vintage rides, and in modified or
customized form, wagons take on an entirely different personality.
