Vintage vehicle enthusiasts at Disney California Adventure now have a new subject to enjoy. Following the
Buena Vista Street Packard, and the
Park Service truck over by Grizzly River Run, the new Grizzly Peak Airfield now features a 1950s-era Rambler station wagon parked for vacation. This is part of the area formerly known as
Condor Flats, now converted into a part of the Grizzly peak themed land. The ambiance is much more rustic now, with added trees, a wilderness color palette, and new foresty air tower adding intimacy and beauty to this area. The shops and attractions remain the same, just with new names and paint jobs, but I think the improvement is still substantial. Now, this corner of the park is much more cohesive, and I have more subjects for photos!

The Rambler is parked with a canoe on top. |

Looks like someone is stocked and fully loaded for an adventure! |

The station wagon provides a great nostalgia feel to the old documentary style movies of trips to America's national parks. |

It's a lovely addition to Disney California Adventure. |
1960 model. I'm surprised they didn't go for a mid-'50s one, at the time Disneyland first opened AMC sponsored an attraction and the World of Disney TV show. I think that had ended by the time this car was built.
