    I probably saw that movie at the drive-in when it came out so I didn't see it.:rofl:
    I do remember Racquel Welch was in it.
    Was she Mother, Jugs, or Speed?:dance:

    That red is absolutely a great color. I have always been partial to the Gold, which is that old standard. That red, however really makes that wagon stand out in a crowd!

    Should be "fire red" ... is that paint code '75' on the trim tag?

    Yep, "75". Don't get me wrong... this is a handsome car in any color, but when's the last time you saw one in red? I've had more than my share of "earth-tone" GM cars, so the red really got me.

    Thanks everyone for the kind words! 'Redwood' has some major rust around the windows (common, I hear). I'll try to post some pics as I start patching them up.
