Decided it's time to part with the old girl.  I'd started on this project, but it's been sitting for a couple of years now and I just can't get time to work on it, with house stuff lately.  Rather than let her sit, maybe someone else can pick up the mantle where I left off.

Seems like a great deal.  Does it have A/C?

If you roll all 5 windows down and get moving about 30 mph.

The 66 is my favorite all time Chrysler body style, and extremely difficult to find in a wagon anymore.  If this was a year ago, I would be all over it, but I am currently after a different White Whale.  GLWtS

Dayum!  If I didn't just by a truck.  Honey needs dark blue wheels and Baby Moons.

I'm sorry if it's been stated, but does this have the rear facing or side facing 3rd row?

I just looked up the numbers and did the math. This is 5 ft longer than a Honda Fit. in case anyone is as curious as I am.

It also fits a lot more than a Fit.  You can lay the back seats down and fit a whole sheet of plywood, flat.

Thanks.  Buyer came by yesterday, he and his son loaded it up.  Paid cash.  Even sold him an extra box of unrelated Mopar stuff I'd had kicking around my garage, so, yay- more money, less clutter!

Now to focus on the remaining projects....Jaguar, Corvair, Volvo, Plymford....

Yes, he was a really good guy.  Local-ish, too, so that helps.  One of the Pennsylvania Mopar Mafia, lol.
