    Mopar in my veins, but my 1st mopar wagon. Recently picked this gem up in the midwest from the family of a former mopar mechanic (50s-60s). Features a 361, pushbutton trans, 9 pass, pw, pb, and power rear window. This is a slow rolling project being put together as time and money (parts) allow.

    Sounds like a great car. Is it a hardtop? I also have a 9 pass, pushbutton trans mopar wagon. I get a lot of enjoyment out of mine. I hope you will be able to do the same with yours.

    It should be a hardtop, Jeramiah. In the years Chrysler Corp offered the hardtop wagons ('60 - '64), Plymouth did not get the hardtops (with ONE exception); Dodge got a mix of pillared and pillarless (hardtop) wagons; and Chrysler ONLY had hardtops.

    I, too would love to see some pics, Ben!

    Total bummer that Plymouth didn't get a hardtop wagon. I would have loved it if my car was a hardtop.

    And, yes Ben, I too would love to see some photographs.

    Not really. With the right tools, you guys can de-bummer your sedans the Wendy O. way.

    Wasn't it the Indians who invented hanging their victims from their nips?

    God they came up with a lot of scary stuff. Supposedly the Comanches would use torture as way way to give victims a chance to reclaim their honor. If you don't scream while they torture you , you die an honorable death. I would have begun screaming and lost my honor as soon as I saw Indians come out of the woods. I had a friend (r.i.p. Miss you Craig) that would do his "stand-up" comedy routine while suspended from the ceiling by hooks in his back...it wasn't very funny.

    In the Amazon jungle, the way to manhood is to put on a set of bullet ant gloves. Then, to shut up:
