Well, if it's a wagon, it's not a GT. Someone swapped in a GT wheel, easy enough. You have a wagon (2?5). If it's a 4 cylinder (likely) it's a 245. If it's a V-6 gas (unusual, but possible) it's a 265GLE.

If it's an I-6 diesel, it's a 245DL (which makes no sense, but that's how it is.)

If its a 4-cylinder, and it has crank windows, you have a 245DL. If you have power windows, its a 245GL.

Not that GL vs. DL matters one bit, except to the idiot behind the parts counter who is trained to insist on knowing such things to sell you spark plugs. Any 4 cylinder uses the same plugs.
