1980 Toyota Cressida wagon


Caught the wagon in Ellsworth Maine. The owner inherited it from a relative in California. It's entirely original, low-mileage and pretty close to showroom condition. Vintage vinyl and velour. A nimble little Eighties survivor. What is a "cressida" anyway? Or a "tercel"? Or for that matter, a "prius" or a "corolla"?
