Blue theres no way I would give 500 for a wagon to run in the derby. Did you hit the lotto or what?

No, but if I time it right I am think I could get it for $250 he already cut the price down once I was told he was askin 600 for it but that I could get it for 5, so maybe if I wait and the right time talk to my contacts I could get it for 250.

I payed $110 for the caddy....and it has a good body and frame on it. That is what is important. Now it is ready to go!!! Adams County Fair starts on July 13. That is the day of the derby.

Sunday in the Adams Co demo dery, I finished 3rd in my heat and 8th in the feature. My car is trashed, the whole frame in bent in the wheels. Now is the time to find another car and get started. I am looking for a Crown Vick or Lincoln. I also am looking for a 305 or 350 motor and a rear end with a 600 rear. If you know of any please let me know. Thanks.

I run in the scioto county derby every year and i know were some crown vic's are. LP'S auto parts had couple. There on 52 right before west high school. Really you don't need a wagon to win the derby any more an ltd crown vic is what has one the scioto county derby the last three years. Thats what i run and im telling you if you build them right there like driving a tank.
