Not one of them had "wood" siding!

I love this photo. I believe it was taken before my father left for one of his fishing trips in the Boundary Waters of MN. The wagons were also used for many ski trips & to haul our Airstream around the country for 3-week vacations every June.

I love "sport wagons" - my wife currently drives an '11 Audi A4 Avant.

That looks like a Grumman flat back aluminum canoe.
