Junkyard Find: 1982 Nissan Sentra Station Wagon

The Corolla has been with us since the 1966 model year, the Civic since 1973. The Sentra didn't appear until partway through 1982, and first-year examples are quite rare (the closest I've come in the junkyard is this '83 sedan). Here's one that I found at a Denver yard a few weeks ago.
177,000 miles out of a Late Malaise Era econobox is pretty good.
Truly small station wagons, like small pickup trucks, are no longer with us. That's a shame, because these things were very useful.
The E15 engine produced just 67 horsepower, but the car managed to get better than 50 miles per gallon on the highway.

The Sentra was also the first US-market Nissan to be branded as a straight-up Nissan, though this ad sneaks in the Datsun name.
