    This was my first car, bought it in 71. From our family doctor, it had all options including the 440 engine. Drove it for 10 years and gave it to my dad who drove it for another 10 years. He sold it after we put 250,000 miles on it. What a workhorse of a car. It never failed to get you where you needed to go! As far as I know it is still around, saw it last about 5 years ago. Needed paint!! Thanks

    This definitely brought back memories as a 12-13 year old kid. My mom and dad bought a '63 Chrysler Newport wagon that was red. We went across the U.S. in that car. Dad stayed in Nebraska with his family while Mom & I drove to Chicago to visit a friend of hers, and then all the way to D.C. Mom dragged me through all sorts of graveyards as she was on a hunt for family that had passed and lived in New York and Pennsylvania.
    I still have lots of memories of both that trip and that car. She even let this knuckleheaded kid drive the thing for a short distance. That was cool!! 😊

    Amazing car. I love it. In 1967 my parents got a `67 Imperial Sedan. When they bought it, it had been wrecked and repaired. They drove it for 9 years and 140K miles. My grandparents had a `66 Newport, purchased new, and my parents had two Town & Countrys in a row, both purchased new. One was a `72 and one was a `75. Both had roof racks, and we used them on our road trips into the South every year. My brother and I always rode in the way back seat. I love Mopar and I love wagons, just like the owner of that car. I remember also my dad carrying plywood and sheetrock in the `75.

      Brings back memories of the '67 Newport sedan my parents had. I lobbied dad endlessly to get the wagon, but my mom at 5'-3" felt overwhelmed. The larger wagon interior made the whole car feel bigger to her. The brochures listed front disc brakes as standard only on the T&C and Imperial then, but I remember seeing some wagons with the smaller 14" wheelcovers from the Newport, sp I believe that Chrysler didn't have enough capacity to put discs on all the wagons! This car is the last model year that the T&C did NOT have fake wood grain on the sides, and I agree... most wagons looked better without it. The left side Pentastar? It is not centered like the right side. I bet it was a dealer add-on.

    This is a gorgeous survivor 1967 Chrysler Town & Country Station Wagon in Spice Gold Metallic! It has a surprising length, and looks like a yacht on wheels! Very nice front with those double headlights and the wavy chrome grille! Interesting about the electric glass that lowers to open the rear door and demonstrating the enormous interior space that this truck has. It seems incredible that, after so many years, everything remains original! An attractive interior with comfortable, spacious seats and an elegant instrument panel trimmed in wood and chrome (special mention for the cold indicator light that still works!). I am always amazed by the striking art found in those catalogs and brochures of the era. Finally, the final journey through those roads and background landscapes was excellent; also demonstrating that, for a large and heavy car, its behavior is quite smooth. I agree with what Mr. Weiner said at the end, that "everyone has a story to share. It doesn't matter if it's a Chrysler, Chevrolet, Pontiac, Ford or any brand, it's the memories that these vehicles evoke in the people". Oh, and also what you mentioned, Lou, about "cars looking better with age!" Happy holidays to all, and warm greetings from a distance!

    Hey Larry! That is a beautiful car and one of the best-looking station wagons ever. Glad you could get this incredible survivor and show it off. I agree this wagon looks best without the optional luggage rack. This car has so much interior room and can easily accommodate full 4x8 sheets of plywood or drywall laying flat on the floor without any problem. Love the 1967 Chrysler dashboard, steering wheel, interior chrome, grille, taillights, side glass, side sheetmetal. But the best part of all is the Highland Park hummingbird starter to signal the start of another great ride in a wonderful Chrysler.

    Hi, Lou! Of course, you knew I'd come a-calling with this episode, and it's even got all the chickadees talking! Interesting how this Town & Country lacks a roof rack and a clock! My wagon doesn't have a roof rack either, but it does have a clock and a vinyl top (although the latter is mostly gone now).
    If you had any Chrysler in that era--especially a Town & Country--you were large and in charge, and indeed you were moving up, as the slogan suggested! Back then, a Chrysler just wasn't a Chrysler any other way! 1967 was notable for being the first year for the Newport Custom series, which came in the form of a four-door sedan, four-door hardtop and "fast top" two-door hardtop. In 1968, woodgrain became part of the package for the Town & Country, which was sort of a return to tradition for the nameplate (although you did have the option of deleting it). As for station wagons in general, Larry absolutely nails it when he talks about the station wagon experience. Until the 1990s, about the only wagons that piqued any collector interest were woodies and the 1955-1957 Chevy Nomad/Pontiac Safari, and it seemed like muscle cars and ponycars were getting all the glory. Thankfully, we began to recognize the value of longroofs before it was too late. As Larry said, it's the memories that come with them that make them so valuable now. He and his T&C would be very welcome additions to the ISWC!
    A wagonload of thanks to you and Larry for taking us on this nostalgic journey through Town & Country! This was the high point of my day, too!

    When I was a young child, full sized station wagons were commonplace. They had a lot of room inside. They were versatile. They were literally the do it all vehicles of their day. It is a great thing that there are still a few survivors that can remind one of a bygone era when families would pile everything they could into their station wagon for their road trip.

    This video mirrors that car, in length!👏👍 Interesting that the T&C nomenclature on the quarter panels has a woodgrain look to its background. I was thinking that that car is begging for some wood panel treatment, but I also like the clean look without it a lot. Dilemma easily solve by magnetic woodgrain... The steps and grab handles would've been perfect for accessing a luggage rack. Those fender skirts look awesome too!
    I always loved those vinyl covered C pillars shown in the brochure @8:42. MOPAR never fully committed their full size line-up to the fastback fad like Ford and GM did.

    Great air conditioning in these. We had a sedan version of this. We still had it when the first oil crisis hit. It was the first time I was aware of anyone tracking MPG. My father would reset the trip odometer at each fil-up. It got sidelined and used as a back-up for a year or two then sold to some people who lived next door to my school so I saw it every day. It never moved much. I remember the cold light. As a child I thought it was to let us know when heat could be produced. Then one day the cold light never went out and I learned what a thermostat was and why it was necessary.

    Half crank to start, that's the way I like it! The TC's were actually considered in the New Port line and usually trimmed off the customs. He's right about wagons. So many people in my family had wagons of various makes, and they were just used and abused to death because they could do just about anything. I recall so many ending up in demo derbys.. The addition of OD is the best thing to happen to any of these cars, even with just a 3.23 rear gear which it probably has, because usually these earlier wagons had SMALLER gas tanks then the regular sedans and coupes did, the result of packaging. Nice to see such an untouched survivor. Engel (sp) came from Ford, so naturally these cars do look a lot like Lincolns and Mercs of that time, but still had unique features that made it a Chrysler. Don't kid yourself. The 383 4bbl was a premium fuel dual exhaust mill with great low end torque, and good mid range power.

    We didn't have a station wagon, but we did have a 1966 Chrysler Newport that all 5 kids and Mom and Dad would pile into and take on trips.

    PS-People forget, many of these met their fate as they made great demolition derby cars. Infact they were so good, along with The Imperials, that they were banned from most demolition derby’s mid-70’s.
    PS-PS!! I believe this was Chrysler’s top wagon, thus being very pricey, so not many were probably produced in the 1st place.

    Thanks so much! I have yet another story, but this post caught my eye because my family bought this EXACT year, make and model new in 1967 as a special order. Ours was white and had the New Yorker interior which was cloth and vinyl combined. We had the roof rack and the 3rd seat, but only the tailgate window was power. My mom thought we would have chopped our heads off if we had power windows all around and they didn't offer a manual tailgate window. 😅 Ours had cornering lights (an option I believe also from the NY'er).
    We drove that car from Upstate New York to California and back with the roof rack fully loaded in 1968. I was 9 years old. Very Chevy Chase Vacation-esque with my 2 older siblings. Unfortunately, it was a (really) huge lemon and left us stranded several times on that trip. I later learned to drive in that car and therefore can now drive anything. 😅 My dad was an attorney and this was his first brand new car ever. He wanted a Mercedes 280SE, but we had already had a 1958 220S and my mom hated it so my dad had to wait a few years of the T&C being a lemon to convince my mom to let him buy his first new 280 in 1974. The T&C was sadly then retired to behind the garage then sold. I knew every inch of that car as I was the family car detailer. It took forever to wash and wax, but I loved every minute of it. Chrysler definitely lost money on the warranty on that car. It was in the shop constantly for the first year. But a COMFY CRUISER she was for sure. 👍🏼❤

    That is an amazing find. He is correct about few wagons surviving. Plus so many were sacrificed to demolition derbies. That is the A/C drier you were pointing at. It has a site glass on the top. Back in the good-ol-days of R12 one could look at the glass and see if it was low on Freon. Most wagon A/C's could not compete with the heat generated by all the glass. Not the Chrysler. It would keep the interior meat locker cold on the hottest day!!
