I REALLY wish I could go back in time to see what year it was, knowing what I now about yearly changes for these cars, but the Caprice Estate shown is essentially an EXACT twin of the brown Chevy wagon I rode in to Camp 40 Acres in Wilmington, MA when I first started as a camper there in the summer of 1984.

Thanks for watching. I have been busy taking classes on CAD design and 3d modeling. 8 weeks of 7 hours per day plus about 4 hours of homework. I am living proof than an old dog can learn some new tricks.

I hate to break it to this guy … especially 48 years later … but the Bel Air and base Malibu were not available with a third seat. 🤣

You saying Chevy didn't know what it was selling? to get to 15 models, you have to have a three seat BelAir Wagon and Malibu Wagon....

According to factory Chevy sales brochure the '73 Bel-Air wagon was available with 3rd seat... I also have seen some production numbers that show they were made, but in small numbers.

There's a mid 70's Chevy Impala wagon for sale close to me....VERY clean....Unfortunately no room in the garage and our investment guy would probably take a dim view of my frivolous spending.

Yes, up from 28 cents in 1972. That was a scary time for people who either had long commutes or who had to fuel a truck or van. By 1981, it was up to $1.35. People couldn't afford to drive to work.

Love how this one doesn't have a power tailgate. That was stupid on GM's part. Frankly it was heavy and rather cumbersome to lift. The whole clamshell concept looked trick, but the very fact that GM abandoned it after this generation says something about both its real and perceived advantages in the real world. That 3rd seat, btw wasn't great even for kids past about 10 - Chrysler had it there, rear facing or not. (Ford DFRS? hahahha. But the rest of the interior was much more luxurious)
