There are only 728 of these babies made. They came with 6 or 9 person-seats. Mine is a 6-seater. It's powered by a 4-bbl 413 w/ factory dual exhaust delivering 360 HP. (340HP w/ single exhaust).

It has electric windows and front seat, dual air (in front on the dash and halfway in the back), remote outside mirror and pushbutton automatic.

There is also a pic of me at a...dragrace in The Netherlands, where I beat a souped-up Chebby Pickup.

Thanks, Herman! People forget that some wagons are rarer than convertibles or Hemi cars. Few wagons are saved. Thanks for preserving this fine example of big Mopars: style and power! That's one Mopar wagon the bowtie truck won't forget. :-)
