'93 240 wagon - Red Car Day at BaT

This one is a repeat offender, sold on BaT in '16 for just under $10k. Looks like most of the mods happened prior to that sale.

Just over $10k US with two days to go; lots of chatter about getting it over the border.
As I understand it, a vanishingly rare color (Abscate: colour).

I kinda like it. But the colour is certainly not for everyone.

To carry it off for me, it would need to be Sherbert pastel or Plymouth Plum Crazy, but even then ...

My left knee would be incompatible with the hangy-down radio thingy.
Actually, it's not clear I bend in enough places to get in an 1800 anymore; even the 122 takes some thinking getting in and out.
This is pretty nice looking, hope the action picks up a bit.
