> Any advice/what to look for on a 1971 Squareback?  <

In 1979, my ex and I bought a brand new Dasher Diesel Station Wagon.  The
payments were $205/month and after about six months it became painfully
obvious that we were in over our heads.  So we sold the Dasher to a guy who
took over the payments and gave us his 1973 squareback.  Now I've heard
others say that the squarebacks were not very good cars, but that little car
we affectionately called "Blue" just ran and ran and ran.  I loved it.  Had
very few repairs... just the basic oil changes and tune ups.... had a few
other minor things go wrong, but I can't even remember what they were.  We
owned that car for five years.  Now I must say that within a month or two of
selling it, the new owner informed my ex (she sold it) that she had died.
We were saddened by the news, but knew that she had served us well.  In the
"For What It's Worth" department.

Since then I've owned one loaf and three vanagons (obligatory vanagon
content), and I've loved them all.
