Very sweet but what a nitemare from a restorer's view.

I love wagons and i am restoring a 68 coronet wagon but the wagon specific parts make it like a level 5 model kit. Very hard to source and very hard and tedious to work with.

So, even though i love wagons .....i can really appreciate the effort it took to get it so nice and i think it had to have been painful.
 
Though rarer than 4 door wagons, the 2 door variety were prevalent during the 50's and early 60's. Plymouth's first wagon was a 2 door in 1949, that they called the Suburban. It was the first all steel station wagon that was based on a car chassis. Before that other manufacturers based their wagons on truck chassis.
 
Slowly restoring a 65 Dart wagon. As rainy said, hard to source wagon specific parts.
