My Wagon of choice iz ah '61 Chrysler New Yorker. I got excited when I saw the first one in the fall of 1960. It waz the only one Mother Mopar carried over the boomerang tail lites from '60 to '61 with the canted dual quad head lites. But ah grocery getter wasn't ah real big chick magnet in those dayz so it took a wife, a kid, and 25 years to aquire the "Batwagon". The hemoraging started in '86 and hasn't stopped, but what ah Tail Gater Grand Baby will have in 10 more years when she goes to UNC Wilmington! I'll send Wagonmaster a few pix that were taken at the '08 Woodward Dream Cruise in Detriot. Maybe he would be so kind as to post 'um 'cuz I don't have a clue how to drag 'um out of my inbox and post 'um! Short of that I'll wait 'til it comes out of moth balls next month, shoot ah few pix and try to post 'um. Wagons Ho, Jerry
Welcome, Jerry. Looking forward to oogling over your '61 NY T&C. Mentioning the Woodward Dream Cruise, we had some threads a while back in General Discussions where some of our members posted wagon pics from the cruise. Unfortunately, don't think your wagon was among them. You'll like it here. Marshall
Wow! Thanks guyz 'Preciate the welcomez. I'm startin' tah feel all warm 'n fuzzy already. If any of youz guyz can't wait for spring to take ah look at those finz, shot me your E-address. That's the only way I know how to do it rite now. No kinky stuff, just the Batwagon in all hiz glory. Wagonmaster haz 'um so he now knowz where Grand Baby'z inheriatance went and he ain't talkin'!

Jerry E-mailed me a link to pics of his '61 Chrysler wagon displayed at the Woodward Dream Cruise. This is no 'ordinary' '61 Chrysler wagon......
Jerry, that is a spectacular wagon. You had to have won some awards with it, no? What a gorgeous long roof. No wonder your wife still lets you live there. Sorry, guy, but it's the wagon, not you!!
