Default New Longroofer to the Forum

Just moved from Spokane, WA, to Maricopa, AZ, and I'm new to this forum. I'm one of those weird longroof nuts and I'v started my search to replace my previous project of 7 years, a 1968 Chevelle Nomad Custom wagon, that I sold in November to help finance the move. Pics attached - the 66 is one of my brother-in-law's cars from his "stable" of Chevelles. Anyone know of a 68 or 69 wagon, or any other Chevelle wagon for that matter, for sale?

Thanks for the warm welcome and the comments. The Nomad was nice and I was about 1/2 there to making it "me!" Driveline was a 454 with an NP440 overdrive 4 sp manual trans (the Chrysler/CHev hybrib of the early 80"s), a 68 GTO tilt column (1/2 the price of a 68 Chevelle tilt column), in-dash tach, electric sideview mirrors, ProCar front seats (older model with adj lumbar support and pop-out leg extensions for taller drivers). Front disk conversion ands suspension was done, and I was looking for a 12 bolt rear before doing the rear disk conversion. Sold it and my Harley of 18 years for the down on the new house. With the housing market being what it is, our house in Spokane wasn't moving. Just after the 1st of the year offers cmae in and it is time to start looking to replace the Nomad.
John - the reason for the move was family needed support here.
Monte, I'll e-mail you about your car.
