People like to say "Wagovan", but very few of these are actually Wagovans, and none of the RT-AWD ones were.
Wagovans were front wheel drive, with vinyl seats and a cargo bar to protect the rear side windows. Other than the funky name, they were the least desirable of the Civic wagons.
Just a little pet peeve of mine.

It was almost impossible to find a photo of one, but see the bar going across the rear side window? This is a Wagovan.

Me too. Not to mention he didn't even spell it correctly. If he had, I might have let it go as something to get more people to see the ad, but in this case....
Oh HELL. I had a baby blue, one owner '91 4wd wagon 6spd in high school, circa y2k. It gave it's life to teach me about snap oversteer.
Damn kids! Still have NH license plate # RT-4WD in a box at home, somewhere.
In reply to ValuePack:
I had that same car, just a '90 instead. Back then I lived on a cul-de-sac that never got plowed in the winter. I used to come around the corner, use that snap oversteer to get it sideways and hold it like that until it lined up with my driveway, then I'd just let off the gas and glide up my drive. Lots of fun that car was!
In reply to bravenrace:
I'm envious. Mine saw many hours in mud pits and eventually died by my hand on my favorite wooded gravel rally "stage", but I killed it Dec 7, 2000(must be to honor our boys) so I never got to drive it in snow.
Still, one of the overall coolest cars I've ever owned.
My dad still owns this one with only 89k on it, but sadly it's an autotragic.
Oh yes, you posted before and afters on his car. It looks lurrrvely.

I've been driving one of these on and off since before I got my license, and the last one is our current Lemons car.
I can also attest to the NASTY 4 wheel drifts these can do in the snow. You can just hold the drift forever, in perfect control.
It's too bad the one on CL is so far from me, I have a spare 4WD 6 speed transmission in my shed.
