    IMHO, that's a rough car. When you can see right through the car where you shouldn't be able to, as you can ahead of the wheel in this photo, it's got way more than "very little rust."

    I think it's way overpriced. It's a $500 to $1000 car at best. You can do far better on a clamshell for the same money.

    being in Wisky I would bet the floor pans on this wagon would need some serious work.

    That wagon looks good compared to that truck behind it... I don't know if that one qualifies for little rust. LOL.

    Jaunty, that's a great comparison and really makes the point of how the severity of rust is relative to where you live. Being from Delaware, I would consider the wagon to have a bit of rust too.
