    Had the same car, SS Wagon in gold in the mid-80s with a factory 350 automatic combo. Had the same neat turbine wheels too. I’ve never even one time seen another one until this listing. Love to know the actual production numbers.

    I agree. So strange that the thing that makes this car the most rare and appealing is the 454 and yet there is no photo of it.

    Just like the 2 door SS Chevelle my 350 SS wagon had the round gauge cluster w/tach and full instrumentation. Neat car but the smog 350 was a total dog, The smog 454 ought to do a little better......

    I had a friend in high school who had a black '73 Laguna Estate (wagon) with a 454, wood siding and a white interior. I wish I had bought that back in the day.

    Just after high school I had purchased a '74 Laguna Type S3 with a 454 4-speed. All original total numbers matching from head to toe. Even orginal PolyGlass tires. Cool swivel buckets.
    Learned after selling it, Chevy produced less than 10 with the 454 and 4-speed. Damn, still kicking myself.

    It’s a shame how many ‘73 and newer cars were junked because the loud (often chebbie) voices said ‘nothing from that era will ever be collectible’.

    I like the '73 Laguna front end better than the '73 'SS'.

    A guy that I used to work with had a Laguna S3, 454, swivel buckets, white w/red interior. He had bought it new and was still driving it to work in the 90's. It was a beautiful car and he took great care of it. One day it was stolen out of the parking lot and never seen again.

    I can't remember if it was a 4 speed or an automatic.

    Bought several pallets of ‘73 chevelle parts a decade or more ago from the u pull it’s. Couldn’t sell a darn thing. Offed the entire load finally 18 months ago. Dumped it. No value.
