    Nice, but not well optioned for a T&C. Doesn't look like it even has A/C.

    I agree. It doesn't have AC. I imagine that was typical if the car has always been in Canada. I had spoken to the owner about it. He sent me the link to all of the pictures.

    You are right, no A/C. But who need A/C with so many windows :thumbs2:

    Transaction was cancelled by buyer for health reasons. My 1973 Chrysler Town & Country is now back on the market.

    If you are on the lookout for a fantastic wagon, this is it !!!

    See this STATION WAGON is back.The buyer from ebay backed out of the sale.Why? Seller said heath reason.(?) It will be back at EBAY soon. It is a nice wagon.Kind of high price for $10,0000. But,It was the last year for a true amerian station wagon.OPEC happen and wagon started to get smaller,horsepower went down,emission control was put on,plastic was used more for parts,big V8 engines went to smaller power plants.Chrysler last big wagon was in 1978.The big wagons were dying out in the U.S. auto market.. Then in 1984 the mini van was born.Chrysler new wagons were back.

    Yeah, admittedly this type in its condition is not very common around here.

    Kinda high at $10K??? Seriously? If I had the coin, this would be in my driveway today. And yes, it IS a true "barn find" being stored for over three decades in a warehouse. Again, look here at the owner's post at http://www.stationwagonforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35510 and actually read about the car!
