Where to look for big wagon

Too bad it has to be '86 or earlier, this is my '89 and it is for sale.

I love those JGW's. I like the color of yours, ours was burgundy and it was nice but...........not the blue we wanted at the time.

In response to 'biggoofball's" reply,

He is still in Waterloo, NY. Name is Fred and he specializes in buying and selling Roadmaster and Caprice Wagons. Just go on ebay and type in Buick Roadmaster, and there will be a good chance he has a wagon or two listed on there. I usually check once or twice a week just to see what he might have for sale. Most of his wagons come from states that don't have salt on their roads.
If you are thinking of a Buick Roadmaster - remember the LT1 engine was only in '94 - '96 models and it is bullet proof. Also - look for one that has the factory towing option.
So - a Buick Roadmaster or sister Chev Caprice Wagon would certainly have the horse power to pull.
I say this because we have a '96 Roadmaster LT1 with the rare option of wood delete and the factory towing option.
Fred in New York always has a very descriptive list of good and not so good things on his wagons. If there is a scratch or whatever - he tells it all.
There are several members on Airstream Forums who tow with classic wagons and I am sure if you did a couple of searches you will find them.
Good luck in your search.
Bob

Have you considered a Suburban? There is a "cream puff" here at the Minnesota Airstream Park. It is an '88 and still owned by the original owner--he takes it back EVERY YEAR for Ziebart, etc. (they can't believe he is using the lifetime warranty & he is almost 90!) It is perfect inside & out--even has a custom "skylight". You can see it on the Minnesota Airstream Park website.
