That's not the wagon for me.

That's a cool and rare wagon. I like it!

That dash is just crazy no more cars for me right now.:

 

[polara71]

WOW!!! Simply a stunning car, those interior rear pieces would be a ***** to find in decent shape

 

[1978 NYB]

You would be lucky to find them period.

My 2 cents is that's too much money for a sedan. For 5 grand plus it should be a hardtop. They have a MUCH nicer roof line and sleeker look.

I'm not a fan of the 880s but I do like that one, can't say I've seen another.

Seems to have a bunch of flippers bidding on the car based on bidding profile. There are some with 40-70 bids in the month and they cover from Chevy to Ford to Mercury to Packard to Chrysler to Dodge to Plymouth to Buick. I guess whatever they can get is all that matters.

 

[polara71]

Youpay an awful lot of attention to e bay

 

[commando1]

WOW!

a lot going on there yet seems so simple

Read an in-depth book about dashboard design.
The "stacked" levels of that panel were suppose to show the hieracrchy of information the I.P. is supposed to impart.
A lot of subliminal stuff went on back then. Lot of smoking dope by the designers.

Maybe I can get Gary to "get it' if I use colors.

I think they stopped smoking in 1979...

If what you say is true the A/C should be on the bottom
