I can actually still hear the starter noise on these like yesterday....
Back in the day I could hear a that reduction gear starter noise and I knew it was a Chrysler product without even looking at it...
It was the worst noise ever! I wonder why they never redesigned for a quieter option? Crazy!
@@jankypop-a-matic58 That sound is the music of my people
Old Station wagons are the most beautiful automobiles. ❤❤❤🇺🇸😎👍
i prefer the briggs and stratton flyer
Man, I just can't tell you how many times I've needed to go to the lumber store and get 9.8 foot boards. Thanks Dodge!.
I put the 10 footers on the roof.
I carried 8ft wall studs inside my factory stock Porsche 928 with the hatch closed. Who would have thought?
you all prolly dont care at all but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
@Devon Cyrus instablaster :)
@@devoncyrus7708 Well I don’t know whether any of our other fine CZcams commentators care at all but I’m about ready to let loose with a powerful shart.
Love it! I miss station wagons
ME TOO!!!!!!!!!
I do not miss station wagons. I drive one daily. My 1990 Volvo 240DL wagon has 76.6 cubic feet of cargo space above the load floor, an additional 8 below the load floor, and still has room for a full sized spare tire. At just about 400,000 miles on the clock, the old car is nicely run in.
@@michaeltutty1540 Volvo estates are peak estates! I wonder if they offered 3-row seating back then...
I would love to buy one of these today with a 440.
The 440 wasn't available until 1966
@@Doobie1975 😥
No 440 for '65. Then make it a 383!!!
Or 413 V8
I love these old commercials.
Miss our 64 Dart wagon with pushbutton transmission.
My uncle was in the car advertising business, he told me there was a special class of models and actors who were used for car ads. They were tiny people but who looked like average sized people. You could only tell they were smaller than normal when photographed with average sized people. They were great for car ads because they make the car look so roomy. You see them especially in wagons and back seats.
You are talking crap.
Was your uncle from Los Angeles, California, the home of the motion picture industry and the center of acting in America? The Broadway section of New York will alternately be put forward as the candidate for wearing the acting crown.
These are great. I have never been a mopar guy, but I can appreciate the company and car. Great videos! Thanks!
that "brp" noise whenever the image changes gets me every time
I noticed they did not show you how that wagon was dragging its ass on the floor when they had 9 adults crammed into it! What a BUS!
there was no mention of the dual air conditioning option - a Chrysler Corporation wagon exclusive option since the late 1950's - mounted in the ceiling between the 2nd and 3rd seats - controlled from the instrument panel this option was offered on all full sized Chrysler, Dodge and Plymouth station wagons through the 1973 model year
it probably wouldn't even be fair to bring it up lol . or it was something the customer could learn from going to the dealer to insure they were gonna buy
our 73 fury sports suburban had it!
This was am extremely expensive option especially in 68 when Plymouths and Dodge offered the Dual air conditioning in conjunction with the newly available automatic climate control. The dual air was also offered on 63 and 64 Chrysler New Yorker Salons and Imperial Le Barons..the latter beyond 1964.
How did they get in and out of that 3rd row? 7:35 Those guys in suits and that lady crawled on their knees over the tailgate and sat down?
I wish they would've compared AMC/Rambler products in this film like the Classic wagon and the Ambassador wagon
Ikr
Wow such a specific comparison...
Back when design was important and price was worth it. unlike the plastic crap of today.
B.O.P. meaning Buick,Oldsmobile and Pontiac,General Motors' then three mid-priced brands.
When I was a cub scout being halued around in wagon's the one I liked best was the Catalina it just seems to be the coolest.
Did you ever see the Vista Cruisers with curved glass panels in the roof? Those were the bomb! Nice one below! czcams.com/video/DLNWXFsV_YE/video.html
My best friend, Mike, his mom and dad had a '61 Chevy Station Wagon. I was a diehard Ford fan then and couldn't stand Chevrolet. However Chevy's tag line of a "Jet Smooth Ride" was Spot On.
I would never admit it but it was the smoothest riding car I ever rode in.
We had a Dodge Coronet 440 wagon with the 361.
It had to have been the hit-and-miss quality control that hurt Chrysler so much, 'cause if you watch the video, their products were objectively better in most comparisons. Here's what I mean: Interior space, cargo capacity and (usually) accessibility, drivetrain choices, and I'm sure there's something I'm missing. I know the others usually had higher-output TOP engines, but there were relatively few of the hot models bought. Ex.: SS version vs. regular Chevy model; GS version vs. regular Buick; GT version vs. regular Ford models. If you're comparing mid-range Mopar vs. Ford vs. GM, Mopar SHOULD have done better. As far as styling, that's really a personal-taste thing.
I still have a Consumer Reports my parents bought in 1969 with a comparison of "mid priced" full size cars. They seemed to like the Chrysler Newport better than the others for everything but noise, but when they inspected all 5, the others had understandable defects like window cranks that worked loose and sticky throttles, while the Newport was built with the wrong panel behind the rear lights, with access holes that didn't match the fixture locations, so someone in the factory hacked away the metal to make room for the Newport's fixtures leaving them jagged and leaky, ready to cut anyone wanting to fit a tight package or change a bulb. Talk about self-generated bad PR.
They rusted badly and the vinyl seats all tore so easily.
That beeping tho 😂
Well, this was a filmstrip (slide presentation) with a vinyl record providing the sound. The beep indicated when to put up the next slide. You think the company wanted to indulge in film for their peons (ahem, salespeople) watching in the dingey back room?
I remember when they were called beach wagons.
custom 880 was a good looking car!
Rose White it was a boat
It was pretty much the same as a 1966 Dodge Monaco (which we had). A beautiful car with a 440 Wedge.
7:34 OMG! Talk about "starting something"; she seems to be enjoying this "discomfort" a little too much. I assume that the requirement for seatbelts in all passenger positions put an end to all this "9 and 10 passenger" fun.
An entire family in my neighborhood were killed as they returned from their cottage on a Sunday afternoon in their family station wagon. Their's was a Ford with the bench "jump seat" that faced out the back with the power window tailgate. Three children under age 10 were seated in the "jump seat", at least until the accident occurred. The children's bodies were mangled beyond recognition before they were thrown from the vehicle, so there was five closed caskets at the funeral.
We had 1970 Country Squire and then a 1977 Plymouth Gran Fury wagon, seatbelts at all positions. The Ford was 10 passenger the Plymouth 9
Chrysler photographed a lot of these on Belle Isle.
While I like Dodge Dart wagon features, I like the appearance of the Chevy II over Dart.
I'll take one in aqua, with blonde wood exterior panels. Thanks.
Pretty Cool.
The Polara is Just Beautiful ❤ It.
Wonder how many Impala wagons were sold with 400-horsepower engines or Galaxie wagons with 425-horsepower engines? I seem to recall there was an asterisk like this: *Not available on station wagons....
That 300hp Chevy II with a manual.
What we have here is a dealer information presentation. The idea is to provide the dealer with information to sell the automobile. The automobile the dealer will be selling is the Dodge station wagon automobile. The more Dodge station wagon automobiles the dealer sells the more money he and the motor company will make. From the directors of the company in the corporate boardroom to the workers on the assembly line to the janitor back in the service area where the mechanics at the dealership stink up the toilet, everyone will make more money if the dealer sells the Dodge station wagon automobile. Particularly thankful for the dealer selling the Dodge station wagon automobile will be the dealer’s wife and children who depend on the dealer selling the automobile for food and shelter. Finally, and in some ways most noteworthy, the dealer will not get chewed out and/or fired in the backroom if the dealer sells the Dodge station wagon automobile.
Sorry but I'll take the '65 Galaxie with the 425HP 'sleeper' motor! Bomb A$$! 🙂
Oh the muscle cars are on their way
My dad wasn't a big Chrysler fan. However, in 1965 when the new models came out, we bought the Chevrolet Impala wagon. As I said, my dad wasn't a Chrysler fan.
yeah, well. Chrysler probably wasn't all that crazy about your dad either. so there.
chieftp Well, my dad could beat up your dad. Nyyyaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!
My dad looked at all 3 brands and got the Fairlane wagon because it would last longer.
senorkaboom.. who cares? you're a fucking dumbass, so what?
I noticed they hadn't invented head rests yet.
They were available on a handful of makes--usually only on the passenger side.
@@tomservo56954 The head rest on the passenger side was only available with the reclining seat option. The purpose of the head rest was to support the head when napping....not a safety feature to prevent whip lash.
Rust Protection? RUST protection!? no.
More like missing paint on all those Chrysler's
im a big mopar styling fan but sheesh.. the '65-66s darts were dog ugly
Amen! They most certainly were. They didn't really start looking good until, what? 1967? 1968?
I’ll take 1!
I always thought Ford made the best wagons. Although I'm a sucker for two hardtop versions of the big three
We don't need a U-haul to help you move cuz we got a Polara.

Station wagons @ 13% in 1963. SUV's @ nearly 90% in 2022. WTF?
Chrysler WAGONS ARE OF THE GREATEST EVER PRODUCED IT'S A SHAME SOMEONE HAS NOT SEEN THE EARLY ADVERTISMENT AND DROPPED THE MINIVAN COMPLETELY
So, I'm guessing the Dodge, has a taller tailgate? lol
Beep Boop! :D
So where`s that hype rust protection on my polara? The stub frame's splitting in half it's so bad.
I feel betrayed.
and nothing like Torsion bars rusting away (& rear leaf spring shackles) and slamming the car to the ground!
@@billypate2479 Well, just one corner and the front subframe. But yes.
Information sombre vista cruiser 1973
Every one of these cry-slur wagons I used to see like these,looked like somebody hit it with a shotgun,after about 3 winters and the cry-slurs started to desintergrate with rust.
So 20,000 in todays money I buy one.
Get the Rambler American.
Key word:- Misleading....
Dodge dart and plymouth valiant😂😂 when You can buy a chrysler town and country our chevy suburban
Rather have the Impala!
What petty comparisons.
