72 Town and Country with 9600 orig miles

[rlsbee]

I've 'known' this car for many years and it's one of my all time favorite Mopars. It's a very highly optioned 72 Town & Country. Original and unrestored, still owned by the original buyer. The owner has had a long, long list of T&C's. The window sticker is impressive. The wheels were special ordered by the dealer. Thought you folks would enjoy this.

You can't make up a story like that.
Unbelievable.

[nitoh]

Wow!! Great looking T&C, great story!!!!

What other years does he have - any for sale? Have any photos of the other ones? Very interesting collector.

Is that a vinyl top?!

 

[polara71]

Yup, haven't seen one on a wagon since.....never

That's killer! Wasn't somebody just asking about the rarest C? I think we found it!

What's the owner's Profession ? Can't read all the lettering on the doors, just barely the Name of the owner.
Funny, there's also a very low mileage ca. 1942 T&C in existence that was owned by a Family owned industrial film maker that also had such lettering; could never be the same owner though.

Found a pic even.

Just amazing. It's impressive as hell that the car has a TWO PAGE shipping invoice ! But I don't see front bumper guards on it. Is it just the photo, or did it somehow get built without them?

Interesting to know what sort of `special order' those wheels were. They look like 14s. And if they are, there's every chance they're off of a B-body of some sort. Car certainly is striking with them on, but I wouldn't want to be in it, fully loaded going down an expressway.....

Spray on texture I thought.

Not 100% sure if he had a "day" job but back in the day he was buying dealer inventory(NOS) for pennies on the dollar. Made a lot of cash selling those parts. Morris is a Jersey boy.

the wheels are "full chrome" Magnum wheels, nothing Mopar offered back in 1970.
Mopar used those 1967/1968 but since 1969 they are not "chrome anymore and they came with a trim ring, too

Isn't it dipped?

 

[commando1]

Six months ago I never even heard of the concept of dipping.
