    Very sharp Matador wagon. Opening bid seems very reasonable as rare as these are and as nice as this one is!

    This one is as close to the perfect car as you can get, I think. So far, it has yet to clear $5,000. Whoever gets it has a special prize. I only hope they look after it as well as the previous owners.

    Those wheel covers are from a 1960s-era AMC product, correct? I can't quite remember which model or year, though. I'm thinking they are from an Ambassador, maybe a 1965 or 1966 model.

    What front-end styling! Or "What front end styling?"

    Whatever, it's memorable! Nice shape!

    Great paint color, especially with the wood grain sides. All I would have added would be power windows.
