Default seen a V8 EB station wagon

i seen an EB V8 S-Pack station wagon today, first one iv'e ever seen in the flesh, iv'e always thought it would sweet to own a V8 wagon, any way i was just wondering how rare they are as i've only ever seen another EB V8 wagon for sale on trading post, and an EL V8 wagon one day, there the only three E-series wagons iv'e ever known of.

Threadmine Alert..........

You certainly don't see any of these around anymore.
I reckon it'd be cool to own an EB Spack V8 Manual wagon.

I can find no V8 falcon wagons for sale in Vic atm - google search.

No EB's or EF's or EL's or AU's.

A V8 Territory would be nice. I wish Ford made them. SC 5L Territory would go well.

I now own an EF GLi 5.0L Wagon. Im led to beleive build numbers were in the 200's for the GLi versions. Not sure how true this is on the EF's, but you definately seem to see more Fairmont ones than Gli's.
