I worked at taxi company in the early 70s and they had a couple of these, but they were only used on special occasions, like if someone scheduled a long distance trip, or if they were expecting some real high class sophistos at the airport. I remember it being a big deal to get to drive the kingswood. You had to be one of the companies better drivers, and you knew had to be extra careful with it, and it better be clean when returned to the cab stand. Fun memories.

Who’s here in 2020 watching this remembering going on trips in their parents ‘70 K.E.? 😢

Beautiful Boy it’s sad to see how GM was and it has become today

Work of art today,but 45 years ago they were being to lining up for demolition derby service,Iam glad your wagon made it,beautiful automobile.

The tailgate also swings open like a door. When open the bumper had a step built in. You can see the cut out on the right side of bumper. Bring back old memories.

dad bought one when I was a kid. had the third seat in the back. we took it on many summer vacations with 10 people. 3 adults and 7 children of various ages. gramma came but never needed to put here on the roof. 2 trips to Florida from colchester ct and several others of varying distances. great time it was. 47 years ago !!!

So beautiful, would love to own it

An old next door neighbor of mine had this model when I was a kid!

Boy, that looks like the one we had growing up. We were the second owners. Lots of great memories. Would love to figure out how to see if it is our old family car.

OMG, we have one of these and I think my dad still has it in the woods of my family home..

Nice. The same year and color of my mom's KE wagon, but it had a 350 V8 and the standard hub caps. A wagon that big sure came in handy on the farm.

Damn, this brings back memories. Our family car right down to the engine and color. Drove it for years in high school.

Ultimate dream-car

Back in the early 80's, I had an elderly couple who were customers at my bank branch. They had a '70 Kingswood in red with a red interior, 454 and full power. It was then 12-13 years old and only had 40,000 miles on it.

5 YEARS AGO PPL 5 YEARS AND ITS STILL ON THE WEBB.

We had a '72, we called it Big Blue.

My 2nd car (back in 1973) was one of these only a 1969, basically the same car w/o woodgrain. For some amazing reason the car (despite being the Kingswood with A/C etc.) came with non-power drum brakes all around. The WORST brakes I have ever suffered through. Mine had the 300hp 350 and the infamous Chevy broken motor mounts, which found me with the throttle stuck to the floor at a gas station and heading towards a parked steamroller. (With the broken motor mounts, the engine would raise up out of position, pulling the throttle linkage wide open.) When you stepped on the brakes the gas needle would float up about 1/4 of a tank worth because of the position of the sensor and the tank being mounted upright. I had a lot of good times in that car, took it up to 112 with the a/c on and tires I had made bald through abuse, but never missed it when I traded it on a Plymouth Fury 440 with power disc brakes. Thought I'd gone to heaven. The wagon had 62,000 miles on it when I traded it in and I thought it was 'tired', now I buy cars with 100,000 more miles than that and they're like new.

Awesome beautiful wagon

This car has the same body style as a 1970 Chevy Townsman wagon that my Dad bought for a 3 month holiday that our family took around the States in 1977. It had the same gold paint color too, but not the woodgrain sides. I assume the Kingswood was the luxury model and the Townsman was the standard version. I am from New Zealand but now live in Australia, and interestingly, Holden (GM's Australian brand) built a Holden Kingswood from the early to late 70's. It was slightly smaller than these cars, but big by Australian standards - it had a 202 cubic inch straight six and was very popular in Australia and NZ as I was growing up.

makes me wanna cry.

boy o boy, that is chevy at its best!

Bob Barker use to give these away all the time when I was a kid. I have always wanted a kingswood but never drove the wagon. I still have my 72 Impala 4 dr sedan with less than 50,000 miles on it. I destroyed a 74 2dr as a punk kid , what a shame that is !! Thanks for sharing I just love the wagons of days gone by !! 1957 Nomad anyone ??

❤️ I love this station wagon teach me how to drive on an equal when I was 9 years old...

My parents had one of these in yellow with hubcaps but same color inside but had a 350 with a 4bbl was a damn good car towed a trailer with it for 5 years. Never had a problem put over 120k on it before it was traded for a junk AMC Hornet wagon

LOVE IT!

Wow❤

They do make em like they used to.

Nice i want a kingswood wagon

Kingswood Estate (Caprice).

They don't build them like that anymore.

Might be a Canadian Car, GM was on strike in 1970.

You didn't: Open the rear door the other way, nor did you open up the rumble seat. Ugh.

Are these for sale or what? Are you trying to be coy? What is the asking price?

Sexiest Station Wagon Ever. Yeah. Take that Germans. You All love Station Wagons but Absolutely Hate everything American. Well Guess What. Americans Made the Best Looking Station Wagon Ever.
