1963 Plymouth station wagon
 — burns in CA wildfire

We had plans for this 1963 Plymouth station
wagon that was stored at a friend’s house in
Valley Center, CA.

When wildfires struck in late 2003 the wagon
was one of the casualties!		 1963 Plymouth wagon - burned up in California wildfire 2003

Everything from the cowl back was very warped.

We saved the front fenders, hood and bumper; the rest was hauled out of there.

It is a sad ending for such a solid car!

I still have another 1963 Plymouth wagon to build, but still wish this car was saved!

Thanks, Ron!

Wow, a SAD ending for a noble Plymouth survivor, indeed!

Glad you saved a few parts to use on another Plymouth! So the wagon lives on in a small way, at least!   smile!
