$20k ask, which is fine given the condition if it works all as advertised. From the ad:

"1973 dodge Monaco Woody surf wagon. 400ci V8 automatic . This is a true one owner vehicle with the original window sticker, original title from 1973 , and all the service records throughout the years. Amazing providence this vehicle was loved and cared for and well-maintained Throughout his almost 50 years of ownership. Everything works as it should including the power, rear window and dual function tailgate , and hideaway Headlights as well . air-conditioning works , all power windows work , power locks work . has third row Jump seat in the back, the woodgrain is in great shape for 50 years old with some minor spider webbing. This car is rust free. It has been touched up over the years but looks great. Drives great and stops. Great there is no rust on the chassis or floorboards whatsoever. you don’t come across a vehicle like this that often . Great history , runs out superb , with a truely unique and super cool vibe."

Edit: some photos for records, as @Phil64 mentions below that the case sold right away (no surprise) and the ad may disappear.

The seller will send me the data plate but told me that the wagon is already sold ....

(...) I am very grateful to say that the station wagon has been sold already. The first person that looked at it… paid me and went home with it…. (...)

Wow, what a great car.

That ride is a beauty!!

Is there a channel or something that causes that rust at the rear?
Rear of the car and Florida is probably enough but if that's all the rust on the entire car I'm curious as to what causes that specific rust.

The seller will send me the data plate ....

Would be great if you could post it?
