Wagons are hotter’n (insert un-pc phrase here) right now. This 1967 Plymouth Belvedere II Wagon is one hot wagon, even the eBay bids are hot with over $9,200 being thrown down so far on it and the reserve isn’t met! Whoa. It’s located in Fayetteville, Georgia where the average high temperature for March is 65 degrees! That’s hot, at least compared to the upper-Midwest. Let’s check this thing out.
This car was repainted in 1988 when the original owner still had it. As far as the body goes, there “are some small rust bubbles starting to form right in front of the rear wheels (see pics). Other than that, no rust issues. Quarters are good. No dents, dings or scratches anywhere. No floor pan or rear wheel well rust.”
This car looks good, though, doesn’t it? This is a sixth-generation Belvedere and I never really thought about it before, but it’s been 48 years since the Belvedere name went away. I guess it’s already been 17 years since the Plymouth brand went away, time sure flies.
As nice as the exterior is I think the interior may be even nicer. This is a 9-passenger wagon, adding to the value and uniqueness. The seats both front and rear look great and the rear passenger/cargo compartment does, too. There are a couple of seam separations on the passenger side of the front seat and the driver’s door panel has a small issue, but other than that it looks great.
The engine is a 230 hp 318 cubic-inch V8. I don’t know if a 426 ever came in a wagon but they were available in the Belvedere in 1967. The “Engine bay is bone stock original. Never restored and the 318 c.i. engine has never been out of the car. Mileage is 61,787 and is true miles.” They go on to say that it “starts first time, every time and is as quiet as a church mouse. Does not burn oil or smoke, even on start up. Transmission shifts smooth as it should. If the car sits for awhile, it does have a small transmission drip, but I always just keep a drip pan under it.” This is one of the nicest wagons from this era that I’ve seen. Are any of you Belvedere wagon fans?
Good looking wagon! Oh boy, Scotty asking for politicly incorrect phrases,can I go first,please. “Longer than _ _ _ _ _ _ _ dream”. All right, enough of the silly stuff.Amazing condition for the miles and age,how is this possible especially for a family hauler.
Ha! I think (hope?) that we can trust the Barn Finds family of readers to remember that this is a family show, KSwheatfarmer.
I love it. Nice to see a well kept vehicle! Can a station wagon be sexy? I think this one is!
I’m tempted, it is only about 50 miles from me, I love 67 Belvedere’s, not in love with the 318 but it’s OK. This would be the perfect vehicle for me and the bud’s to go to the swap meets! Wife says I have too many projects, we are moving in 3 months and she will kill me if I buy one more thing before we move. She did promise me a bigger shop. You have to pick your battle’s!
Tell her it’s a cargo hauler to help with the move!
As long as it’s for “makin’ out” and not “wet dreams”
No political correctness here, says a Grumpa of 21, GGP to 12 maybe it’s 14, the Don’s kids breed like rabbits!
YIKES! You’re making up for me!
Clean it up where needed and keep it just as it is. This is a nice driver for getting the weekly groceries or the local cruise ins.
There were never any Plymouth or Dodge station wagons produced with a factory installed 426 Hemi, but this car would be a great place to stuff one.
Ah, that wonderful LA 318 in its first year, the successor to the A 318. The term LA meaning Light A, for it was about 50 pounds lighter.
As I stated in an earlier post, with legacy cars like this, why someone at Chrysler decided to shutter the Plymouth Division escapes me. Third killer Plymouth find in a row. Nice work, keep ‘em coming!
Pump, pump, slides key in, D-d-d-d-dodge.
Love the wagon, may be the rarest form ! My father had a 66 Satellite convertible version. Always looked crusty, smelled a little musty. My sister and I did nothing but make fun of it…Nothing cool about it then…”Jeez dad, it’s 1980 ! I don’t want to be seen in this ! ” The 273 ci 1bbl was also the only car in the neighborhood that would run during brutal winter conditions. Love it so much now :)
“Hotter-n a shaky welder’s thumb” is always a good one to use.
My grandparents had that same car, only a 4 door sedan, same color, 318 with A/C. They got it brand new, and changed the oil every 1500 miles. Whoever stole it got a very well maintained car.
Very nice car I would be proud to own. At the mileage it is at the engine is just broken in. I have had 318’s with 150-160,000 miles on them and still going strong when I sold them. The transmission drip is likely the transmission shift rod seal. I drove only pre ’74 Mopars for about 20 years in the 70’s-90’s.
Nice wagon, but I’d like it better with a Hi-Po 440 under the hood (with the trick, one-year-only heads).
With the big Chizzler B for motivation, it would be a great 8-passenger sleeper, in more ways than one..!
Fun to see these pop up. Anybody that had a family with 3 or more kids, and there were plenty, rode in cars like this. More times than not, they were unloved and unmaintained, but always got us to grannies for dinner, no matter where or the weather. It was always, mom and dad in front( dad driving) the 2 oldest kids in the back seat( couldn’t sit next to each other, or fights ensued) and the remainder of the kids, usually the youngest, got stuck in the “way back”. Never, did I ever think these cars would bring $10g’s someday, I mean, these were “torch cars” for junkyards when they were brought in. $10g’s tells me, people are fed up with the modern offerings, and going back to a 50 year old wagon. Very nice find.
nicely put rube you are correct I have a 1967 belvedere stationwagon which I am restoring it was treated badly but I am turning that around with a correct resto I never saw a plymouth but a few dodge coronet wagons back in the day
My parents bought one of these brand new, identical spec but red with black interior. Many trips taken with me and my little sister riding in the way back facing rearward, had to mind your P’s & Q’s or mom would give you a slap to the back of the head from the front seat!
Great looking car, in excellent condition! Dual mirrors, deluxe bumper guards, roof rack, full gauges, be still my beating heart! If I were to purchase it (NO WAY, TOO MANY CARS ALREADY!) I’d swap out the steelies for Magnums, and I’m about 100% certain that a Charger flip top gas cap would fit. I would proudly drive this one!! :-)
Huh! I think I have a pretty sweet wagon ride myself. Mine is a 1966 Belvedere I
Lovely looking car. I’ve always loved Mopars of this vintage.
440-6 pack, aluminum slots & drive it like I stole it
I found mine unintentionally for $300 in the local Penny Pincher 20 years ago. It did not run and had no exhaust on a claimed to be “only 22,000 real miles showing.” We all know that typical add, or sales pitch. The only thing I did, after lightly filing the rusted together points and driving it home, was a repaint in it’s original colors, battery, tires, etc. It show’s as it does, and who know’s what the miles might be, it is what it is.
Mopar wagons had the best looking roof racks, clean & classy. If I wasn’t holding out for a nice 66 Town & Country, this would be the grocery getter in my toy box.
amazing it looks like it as AC
Great car. I had on in the 60’S 67 w/ slant 6 manual. that went over seas to P. I .for tour of duty , came back and went for just under 300k miles. Ran a FRANTZ oil cleaner on it the whole time. Was a great car.
I’m drooling.
Someday I’m hoping to have a Mopar wagon.
After the kids move on.
And I get a Scout.
Owner did a nice job on the floor carpeting/seat backs and chrome strips almost looks original. A really nice wagon. Thankfully its on the other side of the country. I’ve always hewed to the philosophy that buying a well taken care of car hopefully close in ownership to the original buyer makes the most sense…this ticks all the necessary condition boxes………
I own a ’66 Impala S/W-396-400 trans-12 bolt diff. I bought it with 49,000 original miles, factory a/c, p/s, original glass. Added power disc, 2″ drop spindles and flat cap ralleys. At car shows I am usually the only other wagon besides Tri5’s. It gets a lot of looks and questions, many thumbs up, waves and honks. Not many wagons are left, most went for parts cars or chicken coops!! She is a fun ride!
Looks like the tires are filled with helium.
Oh Boy! Beige!
My folks boughta 68 Coronet 440 wagon. Loved that big boat until a 61 Falcon ass ended the car at 70 mph while dadwas at a complete stop turning off of the highway. Broke the frame in 3 places on both sides. Dad broke all of the seats off and he ended up in the very back seat. Had to pry the doors open to get him out and my Gonna dump truck was in the rear storage compartment. Of course it was totaled out too.
Mopar wagons are the coolest and hottest thing going right now. Just finished this one up last year after 15 years of blood, sweat, tears and four letter words. I elected to keep it as original as possible except for the slightly modified 440 I stuffed in it!
Hey, guys! I happen to be the proud owner of this ’67 wagon! Got it about 18 years ago and she still runs like a top! Funny you should mention the 426 Hemi thing…when I got this wagon, I had a wrecked ’67 GTX with an original 426 in it and my plan was to ‘stuff’ it into this car. A guy in Kentucky had a ’67 R/T true hemi car, but the engine was long gone. My 426 was date coded correct for his car, so after many,many months of him offering me more and more money, I finally let it go. In hindsight, I probably should have kept that engine, but at the time, I more than tripled my initial investment. Thanks for the nice comments!!!
Call me a sick unit if you want, but, if I were to get my hands on a ’67 Belvedere wagon, I would paint it and equip it with LAPD markings/vintage police equipment. As a tribute to ADAM-12’s pilot episode. (Remember the Watch Commander/Field Supervisor unit?
