My wagon is a B body 67 Belvedere II.
Did you put the front clip from the ’57 Dodge on the Plymouth wagon—à la Canadian Dodge Regent?Don't think I've contributed to this thread.
First is a '68 Polara 500 wagon I daily drove for years, it had a 318 and 727. Only option was the trim (that was the 500 part), and an electric rear window. It was a 6 passenger wagon, green on green. I installed front discs from a '72 New Yorker, electronic ignition and did rings / bearings in the 318. I sold it and the guy drove it back to Manitoba.
Next is my '58 Plymouth Suburban, 2 door wagon. Had a 301 Poly, but it's seized and sitting in the shop. I put together a '67 383 with 915 heads, a Comp "Hemi Grind" cam, C body HP exhaust manifolds, just a bunch of extra parts I had. I did "body and paint" (welded in some scraps and painted it outside), it's a slow project. It's basically lipstick on a pig and the body is held together with square tubing, but it's a cool car.
I also have a parts car for it which is a '57 Dodge 2 door Suburban.
Last is a '77 Chrysler Town & Country I recently picked up, unrestored. 440, 727. Has an electric rear window, electric door rear door lock, split bench with reclining passenger side, AM/FM with 8 track, dual action rear tailgate, fender mounted turn signals, 3 speed wipers, rear spoiler.

I did, the Plymouth wagon was as you see it, no grill, headlight bezels or drivers fender. I searched for a while, couldn't find the parts. I had a complete Dodge front end, so I put it on. Funny thing is, it actually is a Plymouth, not a Plodge haha. Oh well, it's missing so much it'll be a mash up of parts from my parts cars.Did you put the front clip from the ’57 Dodge on the Plymouth wagon—à la Canadian Dodge Regent?

A very nice color combo!
A perfect color....
Great old photo.....77 Royal Monaco my great uncle bought new and took many road trips in. I still have the Sears Cargo topper sitting on top of the old 73 T&C collecting dust. Really special car to me. All original all stock other than the Cragers. I also have a 75 T&C with a 440 he had. He loved his 70's wagons. He would often describe this one as the last of the big wagons.
