that's the wagon we had-same color, same trim, 350 rocket. that cruiser cruised us all around, from Wyoming, where we slept in it on a mountain pass in the medicine bow mountains, to Florida, when my parent actually let me take it on spring break from Ohio! what a great grocery-getter it was.
I want that 70 supreme behind the wagon. I grew up in the same one, bamboo yellow, black vynal top and those 70 specific hub caps. Was a north east car with all the rot you could imagine. We had that car from 86-2006
I had one with a Rocket 350. Of all the cars I’ve owned it’s the one I miss the most. We use salt in the winter on our roads and my gas tank support body mounting points rusted through. At the time there were no replacements. My friend owned a body shop and looked at it then gave me the bad news. If I had continued to drive it eventually the fuel tank was going to fall out. Yours brings back pleasant memories. I did get the chance to test drive one with the 455. Very fast!!
You might be a bit too young,back in the '70's there was Wonder wagon...Wagon of steel.( A W-30 Vistacruiser) Wagons are cool and this one is one of the coolest. You scored a beautiful car in amazing cond.Can't wait to see it cleaned up.
Beautiful car. I'd keep stock original what works fine, while also upgrading other things. If it had drum brakes, for example, I'd upgrade to power disc brakes.
Hello Wisconsin!
You can literally cruise the vistas! Was the high school fave back in the day!

I love this old car!!😍
I like the '68 Pontiac four door sedan in the background.
Visit my channel for lots of content on that
I had a 72 88 with the 455/Turbo 400. What a road warrior
We had the '68, 1st of this model type. Grand Canyon, Daytona Beach, Acadia, etc. We towed the Apache Mesa pop up for summer vacations.
I almost bought one in high school sadly i couldnt because of the oarking issues at my parents..yours is so gorgeous
I love this car and want one like this sadly I don't have that much money now
I love the Wisconsin plate, That '70s Show
great car and name , smart styling !
I know the attention's on the Vista Cruiser but that's a real slick '68 Cat in the background
One of our neighbors when I was a kid in the early seventies had one exactly that color. I wonder if it's theirs half a century on.
Where are you located?
My mother loved this car, she said "when I step on the gas, it moves!"

that was a damn good car!
I leaned how to drive in one these in 1984. It had a moon roof. 😄
The Oldsmobile 455 V8 came in both 2-barrel and 4-barrel versions.
Yes indeedy cruise the vista with this vista cruiser.
This has an exhaust leak.
Mine ran excellent down the highway with it big 4 5 5 olds Rocket.
My uncle had a VC from these years......as a small boy i thought that car was a mile long!!!... with endless rows of seats!!!
"So it is a boat"
No its a car, only you put water in the gas tank instead of gas, and it runs on water man!
@@kalebdegroot7825 😃😀😃😆😃I never head of this car. Hey Jackie's good for gas money.
MY DREAM CAR!!!!. IM GOING TO GET ONE 🤤😍
Nice
Beautiful car. I'd keep stock original what works fine, while also upgrading other things. If it had drum brakes, for example, I'd upgrade to power disc brakes.
How much does the tailgate weigh
My Grandpa had one this same color with the wood and all, I wonder if this car could have been his
where did your grandpa live and own the car?
@@16abind After watching the full video I doubt it was his he was from NC
Dang Bro my gram and grandpa had the exact same 70 vista cruiser. It had the 350 tho
My mom and dad had a 1971 just like it. Ours had a 350 olds engine. My dad would never buy a 455 because of gas mileage
Was the 455 ci standard in 1970 vista cruiser???
No. 350
