The Blue Wagon

The Pink Wagon

"I added some 1959 Plymouth 'dog dish' hupcaps to 'Pink'... They really don't seem to enhance this car's appearance. At least it isn't full of gaping rust holes.... It's 98% complete and extremely solid.


This wagon is weird. It rusted opposite most. The floor pans are fine (or at least seem to be) but the cargo hold is rusted through. Usually, the opposite happens.


The front fenders are solid and one has some minor damage at the very bottom, trailing edge. Easier to repair than patching rusted away headlight sections. Looks like the trailing edge of the passenger side front fender and the rocker panel were damaged, too. The bit of rust along the bottom edges tells me this wagon may have spent some time parked over bare ground or perhaps in a patch of weeds.


Also -- the windshield is damaged....&@#$*&$!!!!"

"There is a cut wire coming of the overdrive harness, which I have no idea what it's for, and the horn lead from the steering column is cut. Otherwise, wiring is intact. Car hasn't been registered since 1969, the pedals are excellent and makes me wonder if the 41,000 miles showing is original. The oil in the crankcase looks okay for being ancient. Car has a single visor, deluxe pedals, yet has door dome light switches. Go figure."
