That is an awesome (I mean excellent) wagon! There's not a single thing that I dislike except that it not parked in front of my house.

I'll speculate...by 1960 fins were old even the scaled down ones. Of course in retrospect the styling looks great but in 1960 it probalbly looked outdated. IMHO Chrysler didn't catch up from a styling perspective until 1965

I agree, in my opinion the styling of that beauty is timeless. I can't fathom why they didn't sell. The interior looked great. I love the dash and steering wheel in it. The rear facing seat is well constructed and roomy. The front emblem/hood ornament looks great. I would of bought one back in the day. Nice 383 and push button txsm.

Fins were probably starting to wane about 1960 but were still selling. 1960 Chevy, Cadillac, Mopar and others still had sizeable fins. Cadillac continued to make scaled down fins through 1964. Even the 1964 Chrysler 300 had convertibles had fins.
