    Noobie's ride

    Hey what's up? I'm Nick and I own an '88 Colony Park. The car was my grandfather's, and he took meticulous care of it. He passed on 3-7-04 and the car had pretty much sat until this past july. I got it started and moved it around the property a little bit and started cleaning it up. I'm going to bring it home ASAP so I can start working on the little bit of rust it has on the quarters and rockers. Sorry no pics up yet but I'll get some up here as soon as I can

    Welcome Nick!


    I share a simular experience, my grandfather passed on Feb 16 2004, and I inherited his LTC. Sounds like you have a nice wagon there. I've learned from experience that if you take care of them, they take care of you lol

    I wanna see pics of this beast

                Waggins kick ass. I had one for a while, albeit it was missing a few pieces.
