When one thinks of the Ford Squire, a full size top of the line wagon adorned with acres of wood is what most people envision but did you know there was a British Squire wagon as well? Not exactly a spitting image of the American Ford Squire wagons, the British Ford Squire was a compact wagon that competed with the Hillman Husky and the Austin A30/A35 estate wagons.
This LHD Squire was imported to the U.S.but it’s hard to imagine many of these wagons were sold here despite a growing interest in European imports. The seller of this fine Squire has invested $30K in the car but has a BIN price of $18,900. The wagon is listed on Ebay in Crown Point, Indiana.

It’s easy to forget the success of the Rambler in the late 50’s and early 60’s but for a few years Rambler was third in sales only behind Chevy and Ford.

For less than 2 grand (which is only $14,851 in 2017 dollars) you got yourself a reliable 30 mpg highway car that was widely praised by the automotive press. This extremely clean driver is located in Macon, Georgia through 
I’m old enough to remember the cars on the road in the 1970’s and one car that you rarely saw was the International Travellall. With it’s hybrid wagon/multi-purpose vehicle look, they were interesting enough to give a double take and now seeing one some 46 years later I appreciate what a cool wagon this is.

A 1960 Plymouth station wagon is such a cool car in it’s own right and and stripped down versions with dog dish hubcaps, 3 on the tree manual transmissions and 6 cylinder engines like this one really have an appeal that is getting greater appreciation in recent years. From the outside this Plymouth wagon has all the attributes of a base level car but take a look under the hood and you’ll see a pretty cool setup with the always reliable 225 6 cylinder engine.
