Here is an AC parts car, some of the last pictures of this auction kinda show the rear spectator seat (springs) a bit. It is an AC car…motor is stuck and a lotta dents and rust here and there.

Ah, to see a factory A/C car again. I see several difficult-to-find parts on this wagon, from the special horns bracket, to Floor Air control cable, to pushbutton heat a/c control, to inner fender-mount drier. This is a 318 engine, so it must have been starved for power when the a/c was running. The engine bracketry for compressor mounting was also tough for me to find. This car has the double belt-to-compressor set-up…I settled for the single belt. It got to the point where I didn’t care if the single-belt was “correct” or not…I was happy to find any pulleys that would work. Thanks for the peek, John.
Yes it does have a lot of neat stuff, In my eyes it is a parts car for $400 But would yield more in selling off the parts.
Has a trailer hitch too! So with a load of kids , AC on and towing a camper/Boat must have been a load for sure!
I would love to have a 59 wagon as I to grew up in one until 1964 when we upgraded to a Dodge 880 custom 9 passenger wagon with a 361 in it. Can’t remember if it was a two barrel or a 4 bbl. I think a two would be right… Memories…
