In honour of the late great John Hughes, Lemelin's Lemmings are proud to select with their 15th pick in the CP car draft... the
Wagon Queen Family Truckster from
National Lampoon's Vacation in the
Movie category.
Any car that can nearly get Clark Griswold some sexy time with Christie Brinkley is cool in my books. This car also carries over the theme of my 80's car selection, the Ferrari 308, driven by Ms. Brinkley.

The screenplay was written by John Hughes, based on his short story in National Lampoon Magazine, Vacation '58 (the screenplay changes the year to 1983). The original story is (reportedly) a fictionalized account of his own family's ill-fated trip to Disneyland (changed to Walley World for the film) when Hughes was a boy. The success of the movie helped launch his screenwriting career.
