electra225 ◊ 2010-01-30 18:46	1967 pontiac Wagon, I strongly think.

Drujon ◊ 2010-02-01 17:20	The closest is definitely a Pontiac, about a '69 and the yellow wagon is not an AMC. The 'kick up' is too pronounced and AMC's have a thicker 'C' pillar. I am 95% sure that it's a '69-'70 full-size Ford or Mercury wagon per the thin pillars, lower side trim and 'kick up.'

wagonguy ◊ 2012-10-20 20:22	CougarTim is correct: This is a 1968 Pontiac Executive Safari (the 1967 model sported slightly different taillights). The yellow wagon in the center is a 1969 Mercury Monterey Custom (formerly known as the Commuter); the giveaway is that the luggage rack is specific to the 1969 model year, and was altered for the 1970 model.
