My high school had two of those for Driver Ed, teaching kiddies about the third pedal.

I love '58 Mercury wagons! You can find 57s and 59s all day long, but for some reason the 58s are more scarce.
Nice little daily driver.
and of course.. the VW wagon that never got near enough recognition.
the 412
Bring this to america so I can give you money

@IndyJoe, that Subaru looks like it just rode a StarTrek beam transporter out of 1985!
My current family transporter, on a day without this idiotic brine salt all over everything:
And my son with a bit of opposite lock at TireRack Street Survival:

Had a '78 Malibu Classic purchased new by my parents. My brothers and I learned to drive on that car; wished I could improve on the 305 2-barrel and 2.41 gears (no posi). Also was comfortable for long distances Would love to have it back and build it the way I would have ordered it (Dad was a bit austere with the options).
Got to use it during my college years (late 1980's); I was the guy they called for beer runs. Official capacity behind the rear seat: 5 half-barrels, 100 pounds of ice and 2 tubs. Never had to pay for my own beer for over 2 years.
Another wagon that will probably not be found in the US (or anywhere in the world now) the Fiat 131 Wagon.
Which I would love to combine with the looks of the 131 Abarth
Rust has probably removed all of them from the world...

My wife and I had dinner with some old college friends (from the 70s) a few weeks ago. The conversation rolled around to a Fiat 131 wagon they bought new. She said it was a miserable car that would not run and could not be fixed. Fiat sent a expert from Jacksonville who couldn't fix it. BTW John Finger was the service manager and he and my friend were on a first name basis.
