We had a white '70 Dodge Polara station wagon with a V8 engine - man, could that thing move! I was only 17 when I was driving that beast. It had the high beam button on the floor. I am only 5 feet 2 and had to scrunch down to reach it! This car seemed like it could literally fly. It had really amazing power steering, you could drive it with two fingers. It was so long in the front and back, I have never driven anything like that since. I think I would be scared to now!
Oh wow, gotta love thise C-Body Mopar wagons, I have a '73 Plymouth Fury Sport Suburban Wagon, 440, 727, 8.75 rear with 3.55's!!! That '70 Polara Wagon is AWESOME!!! MOPAR OR NO CAR, from Mopar Nate
Hey! That's my old Polara wagon! Sold it in 2007. Always wondered what happened to it! Except for the tires, it's still exactly the same! And the light in the grille is the factory Dodge Super-Lite, offered only in 1969 and 1970. I really miss that one! The black interior door panels came from a '69 Plymouth, as the originals were all cut up.
71sebring Wow!!! What a car! I could of Never parted with it. Thumbs Up: it looks Awesome and someone else can enjoy it now thanks to your hard work. Mopar or No Car.
Does it have a "Big Block 440" on this Wagon? Chrysler Vehicles Around that Time (Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth) Were the "Kings of the Big Block Engines around that Time!
Hi, friend. I'm Brazilian and I love these American SW and that...... marvelous! I would like to know how much it costs a SW like that approximately. Even 13 years after, do you have an idea? Thanks.
You always seem to feature exactly the sort of classic American iron that I REALLY like. Yeah, so what can I say ? -Keep up the great work... Very much appreciated at this end = )
@@MarkingMBX Es ist unglaublich wenn ich die amerikanischen Autos der 70er oder sogar 60er mit den europäischen vergleiche. Wirklich schade dass wir heute nicht solche Autos wie die Stationwagons der 60er und 70er haben. Glideaway tailgates , wo gab es oder gibt es sowas bei europäischen Autos ?
@@sebastianruhland5198 ja das ist schade, bei uns laufen nur diese furchtbaren SUV's Diese Station Wagons sind echt geil und vor allem extrem selten. Glaube kaum dass es noch einen 70er Polara Station Wagon in Deutschland gibt. Habe nur den Plymouth schon gesehen.
This was the car I learned to drive on. we got it one year old and the exact same colour in 1970. It rusted to oblivion in less than 10 years. I still have fond memories of it.
Haven't seen one in years. I wanna say The Bradys had one on the show. I worked in a Standard oil station as a a kid and the station had a light green beast, may have been a 72, Coronet. Thought it was a 360 but I guess not, maybe a 400.
That color brown was part of the Chrysler lineup. It was a good, conservative color. A Polara wagon was so good as a family car. Even made a good company car for a sales representative. Take top clients to dinner.
We had one with a custom ordered supercharged engine! And the custom Super light that shown blue 🔵 when turned on. We got pulled over twice for having it on it had three seats two forward facing one backward facing for the kids both the middle C and backwards if needed. This was the baddest ass car, my stepdad wound up selling it to my uncle who promptly painted it krylon yellow probably when he was drunk and drove it drunk until it wouldn't drive anymore sad it wound up that way it was like an iconic car. I have a picture of my mom and my sister standing by it. That I cherish.
Terry Wiebe thank you....I totally agree- I would pay more attention to his descriptions and comments if every other word out of his mouth wasnt comprised of 4 ,6 or 8 letters.........he could actually be an excellent commentator if.........
Just stumbled upon this vid. These old Mopar wagons were beasts. Many suffered a demo derby fate. Thanks for capturing one that escaped unscathed.
Back in the days when they made good looking cars out of American steel not recycled ppo cans and plastic like today
Pop cans and very thin metal

These were THE COOLEST Station Wagons back in the day.

+MungoidHen thanks man, will do!
I have a 1970 Dodge Monaco 383 big block station wagon x military fleet service vehicle with spotlight and siren White exterior f8 green interior
Absolutey beautiful car
So many incorrect statements. At least the title is correct. The driving light was called "Super Lite".
Now this polara lives in Germany, I bought it today 😉
Wie hast du das Auto nach Deutschland gebracht ?
@@sebastianruhland5198 Ich hab ihn nicht hergeholt, habe ihn über einen Händler gekauft.

Glad this beautiful wagon is preserved and gaining fans in future generations......even if some of those fans have the vocabulary of sailors......

That car is gone to Europe sadly
What can I say? Utterly awesome! I want one
Man thats one beautiful 70 Dodge Polara wagon brother.

Polara last year was 1972. It was the base model full size Dodge sedan. The upper trim level was the Monaco.
Last year for Polara was 73
I love the styling on the back
has the fuselage light! thats extra special!
The 63 Dodge 440 is nice too.
wagons are cool and rare because they cost way more than sedans when they were new.
Classic Wagon!Classic Song,Cathys Clown. Was that The Everly Brothers singing?

Beautiful car ❤
nice car, what engine does this car have? My guess would be a 383 V8 most likely a 2 barrel carb.
Love it
My Auntie had plenty. She worked for Chrysler from 1941 to 1987
I loved the 1957 plymouths push button auto matics cool looking cars I didn't like the 1958 Plymouth killer car in the movie cristene
that's a 70 grill and surround. I had a '69 and it didn't have the big wrap-around chrome on the front end.
Awesome car 🚗
Damn!
Awesome wagon
ignition on the column is a 1970 , that front end looks like a 1970
Yeah, its a 1970
Awesome

By the way the guy that knows about this car is not the narrator. The back gate did open two ways.
No thumbs up for the language! My young nephew was watching with me! Your really a crude dude!
Liked the car. Haven’t seen one in a long while, The language was completely and totally unnecessary. We get it you were blown away… Grow up.
Option "Eye" in grill
Really cool car, what is this light for?
+Daniel28021991 It was like a fog light.
+retroolschool Thanks, I've never seen a car with one fog light before.
+Daniel28021991 yeah its weird.
Interesting
Never saw one before!
Well it’s a 1970 Cause the grill
They love big american cars.
Last year for high compression V8s!
My moms was green. But didn’t have any power.
WAW ILOVE THE THOUS .FA
Has the "Eye " in the grill. ! 69 Dude lok
There was never such thing as a Coronet wagon
A Dodge Magnum
słyszałem "świetne?"
Wow!
“71-72 coronet”
T’est tous meler! Lol
No reason to use such foul language
