I've always liked these cars - even if they do look like the grocery-getter
for a Soviet dictator...

Yeah, they look like Zils or Gaz. But they didn't make wagons that I know

Welcome to the club!

My father always wanted one. But he ended up buying Ramblers instead. I can
just see myself borrowing the family car to go out on a date in my parent's
Checker, hoping for a marathon in the back seat later......those cars were
sooo sexy........

yeah right....not likely with styling that was just a little too
.......'er..........Chubby.....

Are you saying that your date would have been ....'er....board in that
Checker? And would a former British version have been the exchequer?

Max.
