Wagons , or better yet Sedan Deliveries and Hearses , are just
wonderful vehicles ~ however , unless you're extra careful , you'll wind up using them as the Commercial Vehicles they were designed to be and rapid wear will result , meaning not so pretty in short order
.
This is why the Euro Spec. W-123 Wagon I built for SWMBO , isn't allowed daily driver status for me ~ she can , I won't touch it because I've ruined many a classic by working it like a truck
.
My 1980 Cadillac S & S Hearse is a perfect example of this ~ I saved it from the crusher and now my brother is working it as his shop truck . it'll never be the cherry I want to re build it into .
At least he doesn't get it all greasy like I would
.
