    It is a beauty. I would almost trade my rusty Kingswood Estate for it. :D

    It is just me, or does it look like there may have been a fire under the air filter cleaner cover before? It looks blackened/rusted and the decal appears melted.

    Hillbilly camping tip #42: in a pinch, take the air cleaner cover off your engine to use over the camp fire to grill your burgers.

    Seller says "no rust" but looks like there's some rust bubbles in the pics of the rocker. But I'm being nit picky. This wagon looks great for the money being asked.

    Its nice. I emailed seller, said he would take $5k for it, but no less. I asked about the charred air cleaner cover, there was no answer to that question, but certainly looks like at one time the carburetor was on fire... maybe it backfired at one time without the air filter element installed, or like Jim said, maybe someone used it to grill burgers. ;)
