    There was an electric version of the Golf Mk2. Only about 120 were made.
    The Golf Country is not obscure enough for this, is it?

    The AMC Pacer was seen as a very versatile platform, apparently, as there were pickups, panel variants, and more.

    It also has sliding rear windows, an entirely different rear end, and a slightly different interior. Oh, and optional wood paneling. I'd say it's a wagon.

    according to the listing, the only v8 pacer station wagon in the country was on sale recently but the listing's gone.
    However I did find a AMC Eagle SX4 @bussin.buses while searching for it. 10k, needs new tires, otherwise good.

    There were a surprising amount of electric AMCs, there was an EV Gremlin, Hornet, the Amitron concept, the Jeep Electruck, there was even an electric Matador

    Did anyone know they made electric Grumman LLVs? They tested several of them in the mid-late 90s in certain post offices in California and Virginia
