Very rare 1961 Chrysler 4 door wagon - PROJECT
Needs to be restored, and 95% of the chrome is there. The body has some mild surface rust, and the floor pans need to be replaced. Someone broke one of the tail lights, however the housing is intact. Interior needs a total replacement. The motor turns, however it should be gone through to be safe. You will need a trailer to come and pick it up. Please allow me a few days in order to respond to any questions that you may have.

It looks like the floor is completely missing on this one. That muddy swamp it is sitting in might have contributed to this.

I asked for a picture of the tailgate and the trim on the back. Hard to find parts.

Yeah, really. Too bad, since the outer body looks fairly solid

Engine compartment looks very original

Question: Can you provide a picture of the tailgate? Is it rusted out? Is all the trim still there on the tailgate and under the backup lights?

Answer: snow should look or send someone

It was originally a California car, been sitting in the same spot (storage lot) for about twenty years. it was rust free back then, now?

Sold for $4600. I started to bid on it, but changed my mind. Not good timing and I have plenty to work on.
