I

Station
Wagons - Grab the kids and the picnic basket and load
up the wagon for this colorful salute to the great American
family hauler. Though the book covers American station wagons
ranging from "depot hacks" of the 1920s to today's
highly popular SUVs, the emphasis is on those fantastic automobiles
that came into their own during the '50s and '60s. Some of
the cars featured include beautiful woodys from all manufacturers,
the Chevrolet Nomad and Pontiac Safari sport wagons,
rare examples from Packard, the Studebaker Wagonaire, and
the Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser. The wonderful images featured
in this nostalgic, one-of-a-kind history include period
color photography and print ads, as well as exclusive modern
color photos of lovingly restored wagons.
