Very cool! What's especially great about that Mercury Voyager is that it appears to be a true "hardtop" two door wagon. Correct me if I'm wrong, but every Ranch Wagon, Country Sedan, Parklane or Del Rio I've seen could be described as a "sedan" wagon, with both side doors having a frame around the window that stays up when the window is down. I believe GM's Nomad and Safari have stainless window frames that go down with the window, but they aren't actual "hardtop" designs that create a single opening with a rear quarter window, like the Merc does. That big open feeling is what hardtops are all about. The Buick Caballero is a true hardtop, but it's a four door. Does that make the Voyager unique among two door wagons? Let me know if there are any others.
