    All very presentable for a 40 yo car. You could leave this the way it is no problem, but it would be an absolute stunner with a new coat of paint though.

    MotoMike,

    These may be the best shots I have of the tailgate weatherstripping. But, if something more specific or an interior pic is needed than let me know.

    This is what the car looked like when it first arrived at my house last year. I think the 2500 mile trip east helped clean it up quite a bit.

    I know the question has come up as to why sell this car. I guess the short answer is that I really enjoy different cars and having a variety. Maybe 10 years ago I've made it a point to start attacking my bucket list of favorite cars. So each year I would buy a car project that fit my skill level and that fulfilled my car wish list. I would fix it up, drive and enjoy it for the year than move on to the next project. I've had some fantastic cars and some I wish I still had. For me though the hunt and the wrenching is part of the fun. Also, I don't have a garage and I know that whatever I bring home sits in the rain and snow and begins deteriorating rather quickly here on the east coast. If I kept every car than I'd have a pile of rust by now. So by selling I help preserve the car as the buyers usually store the car much better than I can.

    Coming from Pennsylvania, I understand the thought. We have much calcium stuck on the roads in Winter!

    Not sold yet. I took the ad down because I've been inundated with potential buyers. I've started directing these folks to this thread as a way of sharing the pics and details about the wagon and this forum.
