"You saw it, you loved it and you remember to watch it every year when it comes on television � National Lampoon's Vacation in 1983.
Gearheads gravitated toward the Wagon Queen Family Truckster, the Griswold's family station wagon. The Wagon Queen Family Truckster station wagon was created specifically for the film. It is based on a 1979 Ford LTD Country Squire station wagon and was designed by George Barris.
It lampooned American cars of the late 1970s. The Truckster features a ""metallic pea"" green paint scheme, extensive imitation wood-paneling decals, eight headlights (the second pair was taken from another Crown Victoria/Country Squire and mounted upside-down above the stock pair), a grille area largely covered by bodywork with only two small openings close to the bumper, an oddly placed fuel filler door and an airbag made from a trashcan liner.
This replica model started life in Ford's St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada factory, (VIN code X) in December 1986, and is one of 17,562 station wagons made in 1987. Dressed in a similar pea green to the original wagon with custom wood paneling blocks, this replica's paint wrap and trim are in overall very good order, including the custom rear side windows and rear fender scoops. While the customizer here did not choose to duplicate the wagon's nose, they followed through in the back with the extra set of taillights. The wagon has tinted windows and its chrome bumpers fit tightly to the body.
This wagon rolls on blackwall radial tires mounted on factory turbine wheels. The tires and wheels are all in very good order. This wagon rides on a 114.3-inch wheelbase and has a 5,550 GVWR.
For 1986, the 302 Windsor V-8 engine was updated again, adopting sequential multi-port fuel injection and this carried over into 1987. Backing this motor is a four-speed automatic transmission (code T) and a 3.42:1 rear end (code 4). Driver convenience features include air-conditioning, power recirculating ball steering, power front disc and rear drum brakes, cruise control, power windows, power locks, power sideview mirrors, power front bench seat and tilt steering column.
Inside, the contrasting blue vinyl interior (code JB) is in overall good shape. The split front bench seat has dual fold-down armrests. The complementing carpeting is good condition, while the inner door panels look good. The dashboard is in decent shape. The factory four-spoke steering wheel is in decent shape. Out back, the rear door was dual-hinged, (rear-window inop) allowing it to function as a tailgate or swing outward; other features included a standard roof rack and optional rear-facing seats (expanding capacity from six to eight).
For 1987, Ford standardized an electronic dashboard clock, tinted glass and air conditioning.
Competition to this Ford wagon in 1987 included Buick's Estate, Chevrolet's Caprice Estate, Mercury's Colony Park Wagon, Oldsmobile's Custom Cruiser and Pontiac's Safari. Minivans from Chevrolet, Ford, Plymouth, Dodge, GMC and Mercury conspired to steal sales from station wagons as the 1980s progressed.
