    That wagon is in good shape. Where did you find her? gotta love western cars as they don't use salt on the roads.

    Found her in Buela ND. at walkers wrecking yard. He said that the car was there sience about 1972. Remembers when someone in the 1980s came out to get anouther car and backed into the driver side front fender.
    someone got the rear axil out in the late 1970s. I will try to get some more picks up around x-mas with the u\inside cleaned up and the running gear under her. i would still like some help decoding the tag if anyone can help? looking to see what the original color was. Thanks to all for the positive suport. Later
