    Welcome to the Squirrel's Cage. Looks like you are just nuts enough to fit right on in with the rest of us. Great looking wagon, too. Not often you see the Country Sedan with the exterior decor package, the interior decor package, and the power accessories. Really neat! Love the look of this one. Somehow the lack of wood shows off the proportions perfectly! What have you planned for the old girl?
