No woodgrain. No Aspens. The more complete and original the better. Of course condition and location will dictate price. Looking to spend 3-5k for the right car.

I believe we have talked before. No title in my state can only be a parts car and can never be plated.

Regular aspen rt flares are the same as the sport wagon flares
I know the front-most rear flares are different - because of the rear (station wagon) doors. There is possibly even the rear-most rear flare - for (I think) the overall shape of wheel well is different between 2 and 4-door cars.

It only has flares on the front and back of the front fenders and the back of the rear wheel well, and 2 and 4 door quarters are the same on the bottom of them

Bud is correct, the front of the rear wheel does have a flare and it is unique to the wagon as seen in this original picture taken from the 79 sales brochure. All the rest are the same as a coupe.

The car came with flares and they are gone now. Regular aspen rt flares are the same as the sport wagon flares
Except for the front rear wheel flares. Flares on coupes are HUGE compared to the front rear wheel flares on a wagon. They are tiny in comparison and need to be to allow the rear doors to open.

FWIW, in 1979 there were 254 Aspen Sport Wagons sold between Canada and the U.S. In 1980, there were 80. I have not looked up Volare Sportwagon numbers.

Nice airbrushed 80 grille on a 79.Looks like they forgot to remove the side marker light.

Do you have a link? When I searched eBay, all I found were parts.
Whoops, not eBay it's on Fakebook Market Place. Located in NY. If you need to sell that '80 Road Runner to finance your wagon let me know.
