He was truly an outstanding wagon and I really really enjoyed driving him daily for the year and a half.
I hope Jim the new owner joins the forum and occasionally keeps us up to date......

yeah, these cars will last and last, long after the body of the rusted hulk has disappeared. are you going to do a chad full on restoration to the badly rusted car, or are you going to just let it fade away?
