I've owned this car for nearly 10 years and I have put a lot of time and energy into it. In the last few years I bought a business any my wagon has been spending it's life in storage. Rather than keep this beautiful wagon in storage I think it's time for someone else to enjoy it.
I have over $10,000 of parts and restoration work into this wagon. It has undergone an auto to manual transmission conversion with the correct Getrag 5 speed transmission and matching 617 manual flywheel.
