your actually correct devilrod it is actually the base model but there wasnt as many made so they are getting rarer and being a two door wagon makes it even cooler and the fact i didnt have to transplant a v8 into it made it more desirable.

Looks like that ride I took you in in my vette swayed you to the dark side. As much as I like panel vans id be leaving your car as a wagon. Well done.
