Rumblenote Exclusive: Blue Plate Ford Found in Belize

During a recent drive from Belize to Guatemala, my wife and I saw a gaggle of roadside odd balls, but none caught our imagination half a much as this mint 70's-era Ford wagon with California plates. Yes, California plates, the blue ones that the guys at Bring a Trailer dork out about. According to the trusty folks at Wikianswers, the Ford's trip was a 2,400-mile drive, with two border crossings. Should take between one week and two, it says. Can't think of too many cars I'd rather do it in, if I had to take four or five close friends and groceries for the trip.
We're sure there's a fine story that tells how this woody wagon wound up in Belize. We like to think a bunch of teenage surfers set out in it several years back to escape winter (that's why we went).The wagon is immaculate down to the fake wood paneling. Owner is asking the equivalent of $1,500 for the keys. If you're interested, I'll email the GPS coordinates. Better yet, send the cash and I'll drive it back.
