A Big Block, Mint Interior, Professionally Painted Woodgrain, and AC – THIS Is The Wagon Master and It Could Be Yours


A Big Block, Mint Interior, Professionally Painted Woodgrain, and AC – THIS Is The Wagon Master and It Could Be Yours

While we are certainly enthusiastic about station wagons around these hallowed halls, all wagons are not created equally. For example, this 1969 Dodge Coronet wagon is way cooler than an equivalent year Chevelle wagon. Why? Lets’s start with the styling. The Coke bottle look was still very much en vogue and the lines show themselves in the profile of the car. The slight kick up in the front fender and the rear quarter panel adds a sweet element, the Magnum 500 wheels are perfection, the huge square footage of glass wins, and then there’s the actual styling of the front and rear. The nose of the car looks pretty dramatic and awesome with the two sets of twin headlights set in against the nose and the back is pretty standard fare.

This car is in really, really good shape. The interior is about as mint as mint can be for something that actually gets driven which is a great thing. The wood grain is painted on, not an appliqué or a stick on panel. That means you do not have to worry about junk peeling off, flaking, or otherwise screwing up the pristine looks of this car. The engine is a 383 with factory air conditioning. The engine has been upgraded with a swap from the factory 2bbl to an aftermarket intake manifold with a four barrel carb.

The massive interior of the car is as nice as the outside. The eBay ad has way more photos than we’re sharing below and you need to see them all. The rear of the thing is downright cavernous when the seats are folded down and the front seats are just as nice. If the factory AC works, we’d add a Gear Vendors, load up the kids and hit the highway for some long days of cruising the country. This wagon is truly cool!

    This is yet ANOTHER American station wagon ruined by brown paint and fake woodgrain. Why did most manufacturers insist on this lame colour combination?

    This beauty is crying out for gloss black paint and no fake wood – no matter how well it was applied. Factor in the cost of a full respray and some modern performance upgrades to that motor and you’d have a sweet ride that would still make a profit in a few years time.

    Nice wagon. But clearly owner hasn’t driven around much with tailgate window down and duals run straight out the back. A mile down the road they’d be pulling over choking and eyes burning. Made mistake of running duals straight out the back on a 78 Bronco once. Exhaust even seeped in around window seals and rear gate seals with window UP and was completely unbearable with window down. So a trip to muffler shop twice the same week. Ran them side exit behind rear wheels, problem solved.

      there is a trick with four barrels, using big air bleed. No drooling the slow fuel. Not many messed with that stuff. Glad this one ha a four barrel. The bleed BTW became the air bypass on todays fuel injection. It was prophetic to utilize it.

    This car needs so little to be absolutely perfect. Swap out the dash for a rally dash out of a Charger, buckets and console (retaining the existing interior color), and a dual inlet unsilenced air cleaner. The 70-71 340 style comes to mind. A slightly darker tint on the rear seat and cargo area glass would finish it perfectly. Stick with those same exhaust tips, but move them to angled side-exit behind the rear wheels.
    Gee. Where’s that lottery ticket?
