Anybody remember this wood treatment?

[commando1]

I can't recall it. My mind is either going or it was rarely seen.
Or both.

So few wagons let alone one with the wood treatment.....

That was probably the ugliest wood treatment that any Chrysler product ever had. I've seen a few for sale lately. www.stationwagonforums.com is where you want to go, There are a few wagons listed over there that have the same wood treatment on them. All of those are pretty rough, though.

Well, it's, ummm... Different. That's the word I was looking for.

I remember seeing a few of them. Usually green in color. Seems to me a friend had one he was using for a tow car for his race car.

That was the reason I loved it. I like to be different I guess. Maybe that's why I drive Formals.

Certainly a different twist.

Any cars with that wood treatment?

The 2 tone green with white interior looks different in a good way

Concur and I like the blue one too .. and I normally am NOT into the woodgrain stickers

On a car that otherwise was going to be yet another grn/grn, any wood treatment to break it up was welcome relief.

No wood treatment there

Yep. There's "The Pickle".

Yes, the big C body wagons need woodgrain in my opinion to break them up visually...otherwise it's too much.

Of note, the 72 Monaco had a dark brown woodgrain as a base for the pattern and in 73 they swapped the pattern to a light brown woodgrain base. Here's pics of a 72 contrasted to the 73.
