Possibly the 'Best Looking Station Wagon'

That was a great car for sure-My parents bought it new in 71, passed it to us in the fall of 73, we spent the winter of 73-74 giving it the W treatment and started towing with it that spring. I made some passes at national trails with it one sunday and it went low 14s as I recall, and we used it year round as a cruise night type of car. By the time I moved to the left coast in 1979 the winters salt had taken its toll,as we drove it year round, and I sold it cheap ($600.00) before I left Columbus. Wish I had it now! Here it is with its alter ego, my brothers 70 W 30 coupe in the opposite paint scheme
