There's a very strong interest in a few, but they have to be special: older Benzes, early BMW 3-series Touring, Roadmasters, Cadillac CTS-Vs with the manual transmission, AMG wagons, early woodies.
> meaning they have utterly vanished.
Most were used for their purpose - they weren't treasured the way sports cars were, nor were they weekend cars. As a result, it's hard (read: expensive) to find a collector-quality wagon. Prices on BringATrailer and CarsAndBids reflect that.
- WalterBright 5y agoI'm thinking of the regular wagons, like the Chevy ones from the early 70s. Just an ordinary car at the time, nothing at all special about them. They used to be ubiquitous, suburban moms all drove them, and today it's like they never existed.
