Its been way longer than 6 weeks. Your Antarctic blue super sports wagon should have came in by now.

[@kevinrichards3288]

That car is one of a kind. I bet it sticks out like a sore thumb out on the road.

The original story that "Vacation" was based on, "Summer '58," was actually about a trip to Disneyland. They were going to do it for the movie but Disney refused as they insisted their parks would never close, hence the change to Walley World.

[@TravelWithGriz]

Thanks great insider news. 😊 thank you

[@42luke93]

Also that is probably for the better since it would have made Disney look like fools. Since their parks never close, I agree with their decision.

[@djdon60]

love it; enjoy, forever!

[@loveitorleaveit6868]

That’s a beautiful car, very practical, I can’t understand why that’s not available anymore in that shape. SUVs are don’t perform any better in an accident and that obvious has a lower centre of gravity 😊

[@beemo9]

This guy gets it.

[@Tropicalexc]

Awesomeness!!! Absolutely Love this!! 😍😍😎😎😎💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️🙌

[@erichannes6392]

Beautiful car. Very nice.

[@itspenguin7187]

I think the people who were being interviewed at 0:58 and at 1:07 had never watched the movie

[@shaneodom6574]

Wow ! You guys rock ! Love it !!

[@GrizAllInclusive]

Thaniks Shane, you ROCK too :)

[@odyshopody9387]

They need to strap a mannequin on top under a blanket for Aunt Edna!

[@roberttallant419]

imagine seeing that at a red light .

[@roberttallant419]

(with holiday road song bumping)

[@ftmt9568]

Don't forget the dog leash on the left rear bumper.....

[@curtekstrom9531]

I friend of mine owns one of the Family Trucksters built for the Production. He has his set up wit an Aunt Edna on the roof. He drives it during the summer months. Complete with a Dog leash on the bumper.

[@CrimsonHelldrake]

*does he say the kinds of things about his boss in the privacy of his own home that I suspect he does?*

[@TheKurtsPlaceChannel]

Very entertaining and fun to watch. Thanks for posting this.

[@TravelWithGriz]

Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@_Yep_Yep_]

Its so beautiful.

[@c5cpe]

My family had a similar trip: Louisiana to Disneyland in a green, ‘72 Chevy Kingswood Estate wagon, mom, dad, three kids and Grandma. And yes, my mom accidentally let the map fly out the window driving through hot Arizona!

[@TravelWithGriz]

That’s an awesome story. I always loved road trip vacations :)

[@c5cpe]

@@TravelWithGriz right! Everybody I know who went on family vacations continues the tradition with their family. It’s one of the family values one can’t wait to commandeer and orchestrate for their little ones!

[@GrizAllInclusive]

Yeah the good old fashion road trip to all the cool road side attractions really creates some amazing memories. It's still an awesome way to vacation :) @@c5cpe

[@patrickcoughlin-qj9uk]

I had the Mercury version of this 1978 wagon big block 460 c 6 automatic.glass packs . Flat black . Day sleeper Signs .in the rear windows . Fake coffin in the back .

[@Bringos76]

How far do you think you can jump it?

[@HaloFlemz86]

Nailed it!! But missing the wiggling wheels. I've done that cars ride too. It was to fast.

[@TravelWithGriz]

❤️😍❤️

[@Mostopinionatedmanofalltime]

I love that car.😅

[@justsayingforafriend7010]

If you hate it now wait until you drive it...

[@JonDoe-cg4mr]

Wow

[@ront769]

Does it STILL run-on forever after you shut off the ignition?

[@GrizAllInclusive]

It did one time and caught on fire moments later. Got the fire out pretty quick.

[@42luke93]

Yours is way nicer since you got the leather. They had cloth seats.

[@davehak2880]

Because we’re the Griswolds

[@kevinrichards3288]

Steve should've named his 2 daughters Ellen and Audrey. Lol

[@thefreedomguyuk]

I'm in UK, and I want this car ! To go to Stonehenge ❤

[@TravelWithGriz]

Time for a European Vacation 😊

[@bradye21playsIndieHorror]

These people actually deserve to go viral. But that's not how it works. 10 years ago, nothing. Just a few random people getting it recommended now.

[@SkeletorJenkins]

Ever take it off any sweet jumps?

[@slapdat.byteme]

You think you hate it now, wait til you drive it!

[@landyachtfan79]

Um, the interior should be Saddle, not dark Brown!!!

[@jah0524]

They must be loaded with money if they can afford Disney World 4 - 5 times a year.

[@WildlifeWarrior-cr1kk]

It's called working heard of it

[@lesliegibbons6917]

Did you look at the tags?

[@80sCrazyCatDadNGunAddiction]

I noticed Aunt Edna is not in a body bag on the luggage rack.

[@TravelWithGriz]

Next time 😊

[@justindawson5930]

This looks like an Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser (modified for the movie)

[@honeyblunt5150]

Looks like an LTD Country Squire

[@justindawson5930]

@@honeyblunt5150 you’re right, Google says that it was a 1979 Ford LTD Country Squire wagon modified by George Barris (who also made the original Batmobile)

[@MrMajikman1]

It looks like an Oldsmobile, but for sure it was modeled after a Ford LTD. My parents had one just like it, and if memory serves me right, it was the same green color and had the fake wood panels on it, just like this one. I used to sit in what we called the "way back" on our family vacations.

[@jaystengel7511]

Ya think you hate it now…..wait til i drive it

[@youtubesucks3393]

How is this 10 years old and only now blowing up?

[@GrizAllInclusive]

I know right. Time for another roadtrip that everyone will see in 2033 :)

[@jonnym4670]

the only thing its missing is aunt edna on the top

[@TravelWithGriz]

Would be a perfect addition 😀

[@justsayingforafriend7010]

Need to drag a Dog leash off the bumper...

[@JamesThomas-dn6ee]

Where is honky lips lol

[@crazyralph6386]

You’re missing the graffiti on the right rear quarter panel 😂

[@Cline3911]

Maybe they didn't travel through St. Louis.

[@lesliegibbons6917]

You should be ashamed taking kids to disney world
