1969 Chevrolet wagon

Never sell a good car. I owned this 1969 Chevrolet Brookwood wagon for 15 years. Bought it in 1987 for $750 in Santa Barbara from a lady going into a nursing home. Sold it in 2002 because I was living in Maine and for some stupid reason I didn't think I had time to drive it across the country. Sold it for $1500, and I've since seen it on eBay for $7k. Today in Hutchinson, Kansas, I found another wagon at last, and bought it for $20.

Girl Car

Not to be essentialist or anything, but women have not been responding with wild enthusiasm to Autoliterate's preoccupation with cheap aged trucks. Time for a female perspective on things vehicular. BB was up in Amsterdam the other day, with her oog* and her iPhone, and caught the Fiat below. Many more fresh images from NL are up on her blog, bashasoog.blogspot.com/

Volvo 122S

Saw it in Freeport, Maine a couple weeks back. I'm in Wichita right now, teaching & writing at Wichita State U. There is a lot of old metal rumbling around out here on the high dry plains, but I've been holed up in my office at WSU all week. I hope to get out this weekend and take a good look around. The last Volvos of this era I looked at were in The Netherlands, last year.
