2 56 Chrysler wagons - Crunchy in Maine

Wow, that's some rot. Yeah, probably beyond saving but neat to look and dream. these were great looking wagons, along with the DeSotos. I would love to have a 55-56 Chrysler.

That second one looks salvagable. There might even be a running drivetrain in at least one of them, for all we know

 

Wow. It's impressive that these survived this long. Unfortunately they are in pretty rough shape. I would say the first one would be a good donor candidate for some sheet metal but, I agree it's probably not worth the effort to restore. I agree that the second one looks salvageable, at least from the photos provided.
I did like the final line of the ad "They are diamonds in the rough"
"Rough" being the optimal word here.

 

Both look like they came from two entirely different backgrounds. The one is a classic barn- or garage find that entered a time warp of sorts, after an owner's death. The other was doomed denial from enjoying a particularly pleasant retirement. Nevertheless, both have plenty to offer to just one of them of which it's obvious as to which one.
In any event, once more details are released, the seller should have an easier time getting rid of them
