My uncle had this in a light metallic blue/silver color. Can't remember if it was the wagon or 2 door. Pretty sure his was a 1976. That car would not die.
In the summer of 1976, I was working for a medical lab in Portland. They had two of those CVCC wagons, used for picking up samples and delivering reports at various hospitals and clinics in the area. I had heard that the top speed was 92 mph, and proved it on SE McLoughlin Blvd early one Sunday morning.
Fun little cars with four-speeds and front wheel drive. You could push yourself way back in the seat and exhale completely, then set the seatbelt, and it would hold you in place through any sort of maneuvers.
