    I agree JWD. Neither do I think it's that bad.

    If you wanted to see rust, you should have seen my dad's Colonnade wagon, now that was moldy and rusty.....this is nothing.

    The roof dent isn't all that bad, but since it was never repaired, the windshield now leaks and you've got rust behind it. Expect problems there.....

    Those pictures of the 3rd row seat show the car has been retaining water back there, in addition to the broken windshield\dented roof. I still like it, I'd drive it as-is in our mild winters with occasional snow\salt, provided it doesn't leak like crazy when it rains (which is a problem I've fought on 2 cars out here and NOT fun). Water leaks aren't a big deal in SoCal when it only rains a few days a year, not in places of the country where it rains several inches over 3-4 days a few times a month.

    After my first wagon I basically resealed ALL the windows in any I owned after that.
