    I don't know why sellers insist on saying things like this. That third seat clearly has TWO sets of seat belts, and with three sets of belts in the front and second seats, why 3+3+2=8! These cars were never sold as 9-passenger cars.

    May have had a rear gate damage, looking at the pics on the ad the gate inside trim looks to have been repainted and the woodgrain does not match. Overall, a decent wagon.

    Nice wagon. I bought a used pickup truck from that area before and it had only minor surface rust underneath. Good area for decent used cars providing they've spent their whole life there like this one has.

    Question: GM 'Box wagons' - 1977 - 1990....

    What percentage do you think were sold with the third seat? I'd guess 95% - so 19 out of 20.

    Correct wood grain on tailgate does not match and the Chevrolet emblem is missing.
