    Well optioned and clean, if a little pricy.

    Ad says "loaded with options." I'm curious why a rack wasn't one of them. Nice looking wagon nevertheless.

    Professor, a lot of people who bought the loaded wagons, especially as tow vehicles, did not get the luggage rack, as they did not plan to carry loads on the roof, and the smooth roof gave about 2 mpg better mileage, and in certain weather conditions, a quieter ride, too. This one is absolutely beautiful, and believe me, had I somewhere to put it, it would be in my driveway.

    What a great interior! Love it inside and out.
    I agree about the roof rack. I never ordered one on my 1972 Gran Torino and my VW square back didn't come with a rack.
    I have to stop looking at these adds. 140 miles away.:banghead3:

    Are the roof-racks removable on these cars?

    Looks like the hood ornament is missing.

    They bolt to the roof, so you'd have holes left. You'd wanna cover the holes.

    I like this one, and would be willing to shell out for a good one. Kinda far but that's still doable.

    Not so much....

    To properly seal the holes, you need access to the underside, which means dropping the headliner.
