"I LOVE MY CAR BECAUSE...my husband gave it to me for my birthday in August 1977. It has never let me down, rain or shine or coldest morning. I turn my key and it's up to speed, let's go, with its 240Z engine. I have always felt so safe because of its total visibility and power."

I've seen that car driving around Bellevue or Kirkland. I did a double take, I had never seen it before that time.

What a great looking vintage station wagon that is! Station wagons, of all makes, are going up in financial value; so too, are vintage Japanese automobiles.
To have both things combined into one machine makes it a highly desirable collectible. Jean Sherrow's husband bought her the right car, especially with that in-line 6 cylinder engine it shared with the 280Z.
She's to be congratulated for keeping it so pristine, yet original.
