You are bidding on a "survivor" station wagon that was bought and owned its entire life by one man, who was a family friend. The car was bought new and spent its entire life in the Millington-Memphis Tennessee area about a mile from where Justin Timberlake grew up. We obtained the car when the man passed away a few years ago. It had been sitting in a carport since 1988 as indicated by the tags still on the rear of the car, as we never tagged or titled it. We got the car, added fresh fuel,cleaned the points, primed the oil pump and put a hot battery to it and fired it up. It does have the popular 455 engine and 400 transmission in pretty much the last year of GM performance from the factory!!!! The car is in running and driving condition, however I would recommend tuning up and replacing belts and hoses before attempting to drive any distance. What you see is a unrestored "barn find" that could be restored or touched up and enjoyed in its almost current condition. You are not looking at a flawless or perfect car however it is unmolested and original besides the tires and rims. There are a couple of spots with a little rust around the windows, and the exhaust has a leak, however it is not obnoxious. This car is a close sibling to the "Vista Cruiser" on "That 70s Show" and would be an awesome vehicle to pack all your friends in (IT IT A 9 PASSENGER) and go hang out like those guys did!!! It would also be an awesome Hot Rod Power Tour car. I have looked and loked and this is the only one like it I have seen on the internet for sale. It would also be a wonderful car for the set of a retro movie because of its preserved condition. it looks like most cars did back then when they were 4 or 5 years old!! I am sure I am forgetting a few things, but feel free to ask questions or request additional photos. Car is for sale locally and we do reserve the right to end auction early if it sells. Thank you for looking!!On Jan-18-11 at 13:53:08 PST, seller added the following information: Im working on figuring out why the pictures are so small, so please do not message me telling me the pictures are small, I am aware of it. I will be glad to email better pics if you send an email address. I forgot to mention we do have the original purchase paperwork, protect-o-plate and owners manual from when the car was bought new
