What was a Regal Lancer and how did it differ from a regular Lancer?

How many of the 1300 2 door wagons have survived? Any pics of one?

Thanks Neil, I was working off an incorrect list. I made the edits above.

John, here is a good thread on Regals, with lots of pictures

The production figures are actually for Canada and the U.S. combined. Chrysler Historical labelled the Canadian production as "export", but that is not correct.

The Dodge figures you have present the Canadian production separate from the U.S.

Bill, that makes sense, because the only "Export" cars on the CHS listing are Custom Royal models!

3,903 of 'em....and Ian owned one of them, at one time!

I had a '57 CRL 4dr hdtp with a 313 "Power-Pak" V8.

And in a period of near certifiable insanity, I sold it.

Are the '58 Dodge numbers close to what the '57 production numbers would be?

Nope, 1958 was a recession year, so 1957 production was much better.
