    I remember the article in Car and Driver. It was originally a one-off fully police-spec wagon that the Corvette team abducted from Chevy R&D.

    The Wagonaire was not introduced until '1963, so that wagon would be 'just a Lark' :dancing:

    Who decided a tree in the middle of the pic was a good idea??o_O
    Since they're all Fords in the picture I would say it's a Ford wagon??
    My guess is maybe around an '81 LTD?
