Top Ten Coolest Wagons

All great Ken, but the list just wouldn't be complete without Irving's Aspen! Or the 80 Aspen out of Kentucky(Dale Mears??). Love the wagons..Great write up!

I've seen a LOT of cool wagons over the last 40+ years, even raced a couple...my 65 Impala Wagon R/SA and Gary Doose' 62 Plymouth Supply Wagon....but none are as cool as Charlie Boyles and Good Ole Charlie Brown. I only saw his pictures and read articles about him for decades until I moved to Virginia. Now I get to watch and announce him at least once a month at Elk Creek. He runs our Stick Shift Series and even comes out for the Stock/SS events. Amazing car and an absolute Gentleman to visit with.
Without a doubt, The COOLEST of the Wagons.

Getting back to current wagons, think the Irving's and Meers' two Aspen Wagons belong toward the top of the list based on performance. Recall a few years ago Jon and John dragging their Aspen to Indy to prove it in winning class and the Meers wagon, everyone should hear that thing sing. Honorable mention to Troy's Wagons of Steel Chevelle.

Winningest? Has to be Jody, perennial top 10 car and he must like the visibility out of that wagon because who else can drive the stripe like that (sorry Dan, you're a close second)?

Lee, was that your father or your brother's car? Cool combination.
