504

I used to drive a college buddie's diesel 504 in the early 80's.

Never forget a 2:30 am drive in that 504 to Rindge, NH from Boston to pick up a couple of kidnapped fraternity brothers. Very comfortable, stable, solid and well handling car. Remember cranking Roxy Music's Avalon on that trip.

Durable as hell too. This one went well over 200,000 miles and did not rust.

My brother spent 2 years in N.W. Africa and 504 and 504 wagons were very popular there.

My 2 cents.
