    Those are so cool! I've read a good article on the fastback coupe version Valient Charger 6-Pack you folks got. The engine was an inline 6-cyl with six Webber cars. Had never seen anything like it. Neat styling and I bet they were fast.

    It's funny that while we never got wagons like yours here, that they really look like a slightly smaller version of our cars. There is no mistaking their relation!

    Thanks for posting,

    -Mike

    Nice wagons. Welcome aboard.

    The Brady Bunch wagon in the first season was a 69 Plymouth Satellite wagon.
    Pictures are from the Internet Car Movie Database.

    In the second season, it was a 1970 Satellite wagon.

    Then in the third season it was a 71 Satellite wagon, a 72 Satellite wagon in the 4th season and a 73 Satellite wagon in the 5th season.

    Thank you jim 68 cuda for those pics.
    I have the 'shag box' green complete dvd series of the brady bunch and really love the wagon in the first season with the barnstyle opening rear door tailgate and in the 2nd season.I wonder how many of these 1969 plymouths exist?
    I'm sure i've never seen one here in Oz.
    Would like to have one in brown.
