    Nice looking Wagon, but that interior does not look green on my screen.

    That's a shame that interior/exterior combo make it worth about 2500 TOPS simply because I would have to paint it.

    Perfect example of why most manufacturers moved away from "order any color combo you want" because that color combination is just... hard to look at. Makes you wonder if someone deliberately ordered it that way or if it was a screw-up on the order form. Light green and dark blue interior...

    My Guess is they got a nice wagon with a ratted out interior and did what I would do and change it completely. But I SURE AS HELL would never go with THAT color difference! No one could possibly be that numb in the head to order or accept THAT! Actually if you look at the carpet on the pass side see how it is fragmented? THAT's a very good indication that it was removed and put back in. Also has some rear window leakage by the looks of it too.

    LOL......

    The auction listing states Exterior color: BLUE, Interior color: GREEN. Seems to have it ass-backwards.

    As an aside, these Chevy clam shells look awesome with the Chevy / Corvette Rally Wheels.

    They did really weird things back then, seen many new ??? back in the day. My Avatar for example, my Merc/72 Meteor still wearing what is left of it's original paint....... light green outside.....BLUE interior.................

    ,,,,,,,,,It does make you wonder!

    Man, maybe it's the lack of roof rack and 8 inch Vette rallies, but that's one of the sportiest looking clamshells I've seen. Also, the lack of 5mph bumpers. I like it. Except for the "do-not-adjust-your-screen" interior, of course.

    I'm bidding on it. I like the contrast of colors. I have asked for a copy of the tag to see if it's factory or not

    Looks exactly like the colors of a wine cooler I have somewhere; green exterior, blue interior. Heh.

    My wife and I would have ordered that. She'd want a say in the car. I'd pick the interior. She'd pic exterior. Both get our way, I get a wagon. Happy wife, happy life.

    Good luck on bidding! Tag would say it for sure, but I would not be surprised at all "if" this is the colour combo it left the factory with, as I mentioned...different make but mine did.

    Currently at $6600, this has gone much higher than I would have expected.
