    So, what do you all think about this one?

    This looks like a car that has truly lived it's life in the Northeast, where winters are cold and salt is used liberally on the roads.

    Notice the rust-through on the front fenders above the headlights. My '64 was rusted in the same place, but not as badly.

    Worth $5,500? At least it's in original condition so you can see what needs to be done. Of course, usual caveats apply - needs to be seen in person, hopefully frame is OK, etc.

    Don't try to sugar-coat it Cat! Tell me what you really think. ;)

    How about for $4,500?

    Perhaps $1000 for those that do restoring.

    Might be $500 worth of parts.
    Run....run even faster. Don't look back!
    Why buy something like this when decent wagons are not much more?
