Shame the only other wagon I've seen like mine is in a junkyard scene in a movie...

I've posted this one somewhere here before. Graham, Texas junkyard. I was there in 2008 and 2011. I have other pics that aren't loaded. Tons of 1977-79s that were rust free, or nearly so. The earlier year cars were pretty scarce. They weren't crushing classics, but amazing bodies on 10-20 year old cars and trucks were getting scrapped.

Dang! You got my hopes up. Will be in San Antonio later this month. Just checked mapquest for Graham, TX. Looks like a 5+ hour drive. Won't have time to check it out.

I posted about that yard awhile back. It's called K&K Motors and they didn't let me wander the yard, I only got to ride with in a Dodge pickup with a blown head gasket. They wanted obscene prices for dented fenders, well worn seats and imperfect trim pieces.

Do you like the look of the straight 73 bumper over the pointy 74+ one?

my car came with a 73 front bumper when i got it, and i liked the flatter look, mine is all tweeked around and some rust, the one i got off of the wagon has since been rechromed, i took my bumper guards off , drilled the holes in the wagon bumper then sent those to the chrome shop, they did an awsome job rechroming that stuff!, and i sent a used rh tail light bezel (that had some pitting) along with the bumper they did an outstanding job on that too! (after i got the stuff back, i found an NOS rh bezel on ebay)

It is in Tennessee. It is one of the guys that I met in Dawsonville. Maybe we can plan a trip if anyone is interested.
