'58 Packard Station Wagon

1958 Packard Station Wagon. These were a rare sight when new since there were only 159 produced so you can imagine how infrequently they are seen today with an estimated 20 still surviving. This one was seen at the Packard Concours held in Orange, CA on January 28th 2012.

'56 Packard Tailights with an extra fin tacked on create an overdone look to the rear of these wagons.

'71 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow Estate/Shooting Brake/Station Wagon

Two weeks ago I was in Burlington Washington shopping in the Pendleton Outlet store when one of the clerks says look at that, is that a Rolls Royce? Overhearing that I'm half expecting to see a new one, but when I looked out to see what she was talking about I first saw the front and thought just an older Rolls. I then walked to the front where I could see the whole car and realized this was no ordinary old Rolls but a Coachbuilt Station Wagon. I hadn't seen one of these in the flesh before so I went out and took a few pics with my phone and went back inside to continue shopping.

A few minutes later an older couple walked in and I asked if it was theirs, yes they said and proceeded to answer my questions. I handed them my card and we continued the discussion on the Rolls and old cars, I learned they we're bringing another of their collection to the Desert Concours, which took place this past weekend in Rancho Mirage.

I wasn't at that show so I didn't see what they brought but it was fun to see this wagon. Kind of amusing really because every time I have been up here I have run into something unusual from the Automotive world!

See the rest of the pics here.

This is the London dealer who commissioned this car.
