This Junkyard Cressida Wagon has Petrified Woodgrain

So last weekend I partook in one of my favorite endeavors and prowled the local U-Pull lots. As usual, there was a butt-load of interesting iron on display, most in various stages of cannibalization, but the one that gave me the biggest frowny face for having discovered it there was this first generation Toyota Cressida…

Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday: Last Call: The RuPaul Edition
/
/
comments
It’s late down/over here in the Birthplace of Speed and this olelongrooffan is struggling with some hardware issues so I will let my fellow Hoons determine whether this should be included in Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday or Hooniverse Truck Thursday. And my fellow Hoons didn’t think this olelongrooffan was hip enough to know who RuPaul is.…

Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday – A Low Mileage Mercury Colony Park

comments
Welcome to another edition of Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday. The Mercury brand has left the building, but that doesn’t diminish the desire to own one for many of us. The Mercury brand really came into its own during the 60s and the 70s, with understated styling (for the time), and some great models like the original…

Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday: The Used Longroof Edition

comments
I think it has pretty well been documented here in the Hooniverse that this olelongrooffan likes me some wagons. Alot. I am lucky enough to live in an area that has a car show or race just about every week from the Daytona Dream Cruise in October through the Spring Fling in late March. I…

Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday – A 1958 Rambler Cross Country Wagon

Welcome to a belated edition of Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday. 1958 proved to be a watershed year in America. After VJ and VE day, the American economy was booming with virtually limitless opportunities. There was the expanding suburbs, the building of the Interstate Highway system, and the car makers were producing cars at record levels. However,…

Welcome to another edition of Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday. On one of my first Wagon Wednesday features, I ran a posting about a restored 1954 Studebaker Conestoga. There was a couple of exchanges between two of our popular commentors, Rust-MyEnemy, and tonyola. It was Tony that brought up the Hillman Husky and provided a photo of…

I have had this shamelessly stolen for google advertisement for a 1958 Dodge Swept Wing longroof in the longroof file on my hard drive for as long as I can remember. The other weekend while out at the track for the Spring Fling, it instantly popped back in my mind when I spotted this 1959…

Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday – An Old Fashioned Chevy Beauville Passenger Wagon

comments
Welcome to another edition of Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday. This time I’ve decided to mix it up, and highlight an old fashioned Passenger Van/Wagon in incredible original condition. Remember, I’m calling it an old fashioned van/wagon because this is basically the same van that was introduced in the Autumn of 1970. Almost every body panel was…

While Hooniverse Last Call seems to be coming along earlier and earlier every day, this olelongrooffan thought I would go ahead and publish this post anyway. (Honestly, I thought curfew was 9:30 EST, Dad) Seriously, down here in Daytona Beach, Florida, in the early part of winter and spring we have Speedweeks, the Rolex24, the…

Hooniverse Wagon Wednesday – Two California Craigslist Wagons. So what would you do with them?
/

comments
Continuing on with Wagon Wednesday, these two Craigslist postings landed in out in-box here at Hooniverse HQ. Since we devote at least one day of the week for odd-ball wagons, they were perfectly timed to showcase. One is a 1966 Dodge Dart Wagon, the last year you could get a wagon body on a Dart.…
