Nice '67 VIP!

Very nice decent looking car, but it's a great example of what's always been wrong with Chrysler. This is the PREMIUM Plymouth. No a/c, no p/w, no cruise. If I live to be 1000, I'm not going to understand why they would build a premium level car with no premium amenities on it.

And what are those dipwad wheelcovers off anyway? They sure aren't OE to the car.

Up here in Canada, at least the part where I am, that is the way these cars were ordered new in the '60s and 'early '70s. PS, PB, WW tires, wheel covers, AM radio, that was about it.

"Air conditioning? You don't need that up here! We have natural air conditioning! Just open a window!"

"Power windows? Just something else to go wrong. Besides, what if we have an accident and go into a lake or something? We'd be trapped!" (I always figured they forgot the windows were already down due to the lack of A/C). Same for power locks.

"We don't need that big engine! All it does is get us to the gas station quicker!"

"FM radio? Who wants to listen to classical music all day? When they start playing Eddy Arnold on FM, then maybe."

I can't ID those wheel covers, but they have a faintly K-car look to them.
