Is it true that unlike Chrysler's Town & Country wagons (1941-88), Dodge and Plymouth did not give specific names for their woodgrain wagons? For example, the woodgrained Royal Monaco wagon sold from 1975-77 was called the Brougham. Other makes gave specific model names to their wagons: Ford had Squire and Country Squire Mercury had Villager and Colony Park Buick and Chevrolet assumed Estate Oldsmobile had Cruiser (Cutlass Cruiser, Vista Cruiser and Custom Cruiser) Pontiac had Safari ~Ben
Beginning in 1968, Dodge used the name 'Coronet 500' on their wood-grained wagon, coinciding with the name of their top model in that series. The big luxury Dodge was the Monaco, and used that name for the wood-grained wagon. Plymouth used the 'Sport' name to signify their top wagons. For '68, it was the Sport Satellite and Sport Suburban in the Fury line.
Of course, Dodge never got a version of the 1982-88 Chrysler LeBaron Town & Country "K" wagon within the 400 lineup (600 1984-86), nor did it get a woody-look convertible; although the Aries SE (and the similar Plymouth Reliant SE) woody wagon is a close-enough copy of the T&C. ~Ben
