Gorgeous wagon...I want it. But that upper rad hose has to go!

Nice wagon. Not a lot of them around.

I believe the wagon has been here before.....$7-8k last time. I remember pictures of it in the same white garage.

He has superior taste in luxury cars!

The one I would want is his '73 Monaco wagon: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/cto/4261369985.html




He also has a '73 Imperial for sale, overpriced as it has some interior issues, but nice colors: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/cto/4263720960.html




I also see a Formal in the background of one of the pics, so this guy ought to be a member here!!

I first saw this for sale 2 years ago on an Orange County search of Craigslist. Same price and same no sale.

Wow, The more I visit this Forum the less I feel I belong. No offence meant to you fuselage owners/ lovers but the 65 and 66 C-bodies should not be in the same category, even the 67-68 though larger than the 65-66 should be classified as a "B-plus Body", These cars only share their Names ( yes some parts too) with earlier counterparts and are not the same kind/class of cars.

 

[1978 NYB]

There could be an issue that we can't see in the pictures.

 

[commando1]

Formals share nothing with the previous two generations except perhaps for the air cleaner housing wing nut.

 

[patrick66]

AAC, the '65 and '66 C-body cars are very noticeably bigger in every way over the '64 - '65 AND '66 - '67 "B"-cars - wheelbase, overall length and width - everything! Yes, they share consoles, bucket seats, and engine & transmissions, but they are hardly "B+" body cars, as you suggest. Put a "B" and a '65 - '66 "C" side-by-side - NO one is going to confuse the two, by any stretch.

I park my Fury next to my buddies 68 road-runner all the time and the Fury is only two inches longer, (measured) at the bumpers, they are basically the same size on the show field, It is a bit wider though. Yes next to the 64 B-body Fury, My C-body Fury is larger, but next to the fuselage C-bodys my car looks small. In Design aspect the 65-66 C-body is very similar to the 66-67 B-body in appearance.

I put to a vote, I am starting a petition, I exclaim that ma-mopar should have called the 65-66 C-bodies. B-PLUS. ( I hope you understand this last part is factitious)

Can't use size to differentiate generarations. That reasoning would mean that Valiants were a B minus...

Your '68 B-body is larger than the '64 - '65 and the '66 - '67 B-bodies; so your comparison is irrelevant, especially when your initial post in this thread says nothing at all about the '68 - '70 "B"-bodies. You started out comparing the '64 - '67 "B"-cars against the '65 - '66 "C"-cars.

 

[AcreageAircooled]

I don't want an argument, my opinion is mine and you don't agree with it, that's fine. My point is simply my 66 Fury is mostly like B-bodies and even A-bodies of the same model years and more similar to 66-70 B's than that of later years especially the 69 and up C-bodies. Because my car is really only one of two model years 65/66. I am really out numbered with the enthusiasts on this forum when the rest of the c-body classification goes from 67-77. No offence but there are very few 67/68 c-bodies that I like, and absolutely don't like any 69 and up. I do respect them and the care and love owners of them have, but I would not own one for anything but parts.

 

[70NPORT]

Huh? How can you NOT like fuselage cars,lol

I don't want an argument, ....

BS 27 posts and no contribution aside from looking for an argument. If you're just here to stir it up go over to the B Body board and see how welcome you are.
