Wow, my parents had a Volare wagon in faded schoolbus yellow. I think my
brothers learned to drive in the POS. I know one of them went to the prom
in it. By the time I reached driving age we'd graduated from the Volare to
my granddad's leftover early 70's Ford Fairlane wagon that made the Plymouth
look like a damn Bentley. I can laugh about it now...!
