Scored a 83 wagon a while back. Has been sitting since 2014 Long story short… lots of time and money getting to where it is today. Not perfect by any means but it is running good and rides great.. new fuel tank and lines, new carb, new distributor, brakes, wheels and tires .. 2 different sets 😎
You get the idea… been driving by it for 6 years.. always sat in the same spot.. finally stopped and asked the guy he says lost interest.. his loss.. my gain.. it came with the cowl hood and z28 wheels.. I scored a set of rallies and got new tires for those also.. I swap them out as mood fits..don’t see these much especially this straight and unmolested.
What ya think??

Welcome to the GbodyForum!
It appears to be in nice shape. Bring the rear down a little and the stance will be set. There is lots of help here. You've come to the right place.
 
Very nice starting point in my opinion. Up her in southern Wisconsin you just don't see wagons anymore. Could you show some pics of the interior? Merly for my own curiosity.

Thanks, it has Monroe air shocks on it, we use it to go to craft shows and car shows. It goes down about 2”

Is this Woody from Texas and from the days of G-Body Central and Malibu Thunder?
Also had the LT1 Cutlass Cruiser wagon that was sold to Ed, one of our members here?
Nice score on the wagon btw,

Good looking wagon. Air shocks are probably a good way to go.
I put new springs on my wagon,that was a mistake. Made the car too high.
Ended up changing them out for lowering springs.
