We used to drive from sothern NJ to Springfield in a 1967 Chrysler Town n Country station wagon when I was a kid. Your car brings back some memories. Hey how bout the size of that ashtray; would be considered politically incorect these days.

i will when i find my camera :/

i joined a c-body mopar forum and found out some interesting stuff on this car, its actually a 67 with a 68 front end, but the title says 68. i googled both years and i actually like the 68 front end more than the 67 and 67 tails lights are cooler than the 68's. also in 67 side markers werent mandatory and on my front bumper it has side markers that were mandatory in 68, i wonder what the deal is...

That is one clean car.

The car could have been in a front end crash and someone swapped out the the front to a 68 style without paying attention, or someone else like the 68 front ends better than the 67 and swapped it all over.
