1975 Chrysler Town & Country

$3500 obo. Loaded. Put new wood grain on it, and it would look perfect.

Even with needing wood, I'm thinking that's a fair price. I really like the darker interior vs the lite tan.

 

If I didn't already have the Safari, I'd be looking at this one. Oh, wait a minute - it won't fit in my garage.............

 

KK, if you didn't have the safari yet...... look at that front end on the 75, it would fit! You may have to hose off the dust on the front end and that's about all, but it would fit!

 

Looks like a very solid wagon! Pretty good price too!

 

This looks to be a terrific deal on a fairly rare car. Nice to see one well equipped, too. Lately, most of the few C&Ts we've seen have been fairly low-spec.

 

Very nice wagon, good price too. I like the front end on these, Chrysler did a great job on these!

 

Actually, no, it wouldn't. I've checked the measurements on these and compared them to the length of my garage. It actually would fit inside, but I wouldn't be able to exit my laundry room into the garage - the wagon would be up against the door jamb.

 

I don't mind this car not having woodgrain. I do wonder where the fender skirts are and if it has a power seat.

 

I like the woodgrain off of it, too. Pre-LeanBurn, too, so that is a definite plus, in my book. Perfect Airstream puller. Portland...hmmmm...plane ticket, fuel, hotel for three nights...gotta quit looking!

 

Would the fender skirts from a coupe or sedan also fit the wagon?

Anyone near Portland? Would like to get an honest opinion of the wagon.

 

If you look at the brochure pics, it appears the fender skirts are all the same for coupe, sedan and wagon.

I wouldn't trust the sedan skirts fitting the wagon without some official confirmation from somebody who knows, or an actual attempt to do it. The wheel opening itself may appear the same, but the contour could be different.

Absolutely. Wagon quarters have to house the fuel tanks and spare tires, so their design is almost always quite different from the sedan versions. For example, a clamshell Olds' skirts would never interchange with a 98, even though they look very much the same.

I have a 74 town and country. When the fender skirts are off, you don't realy mis them. If you didn't know, you think they do not belong there. A rare car then, and rarer now. I am restoring mine, and be carefull for rust. The bottom is very rust prone,and since it is a unibody, the is no frame to carry weak parts. If I were in the states, I would grab this one, value only can go up.
