No not station wagons, the kind you pull with a handle. I have a crappy Mal-Wart radio flyer that has about 1000 miles on it and I am looking to build a new one.
I guess I don't have a picture on file, I'll get one. Well Sat, I found the 50s art deco wagon I want to build my new one out of but I hate to spend $50 and rip apart a good old wagon, still looking for a 50s pan.
 
can't remember where this came from of course

Ok, when I saw this post I knew I had something to contibute, but with over time at work, and life in general, I didn't get chance to find the pics I wanted until last night.

I have two wagons like the one pictured below....not the one pictured. I plan on restoring one (similar to the one pictured) and was planning on "hot rodding" the other one. I don't think I"ll lower it quite as much as the one above, but we'll see. I promise to post some pics after I get started on them (don't hold your breath...the Studebaker is still first in line and I'm hoping that will be on the road in the next month)

Awesome, those Streak o light were made by radio flyer to commemorate a worlds fair or something around 1935. I found on on ebay and it went for $35 because they wouldn't ship. I practically begged him to knock it down and box it. I don't know why people who won't ship even try to use ebay.

I don't remember exactly when, but the pics I posted were from an Ebay deal. I grabbed the photos for reference for the one I want to restore. I found both of the ones I got locally at yard sales (I try and check out as many as I can for stuff like this including old tricycles and pedal cars....and whatever other treasures I may find). I wan't sure about the years they were made, so thanks for that info.
