On to the experts

Otto Puzzell · September 06, 2010, 06:12:00 AM

Still no attempts.

Pro's will know.

Quiller · September 08, 2010, 06:45:31 PM

That's the Sportswagon from 1973

Otto Puzzell · September 09, 2010, 05:31:46 AM

That's what it's called. Who built it?

Locked for you for 48 hours.

Quiller · September 10, 2010, 10:44:40 AM

Frankly I don't know who it was built by.
The fuzzy literature I have seems to suggest it has a 'Royale' body, possibly by Uniroyal (?)

Otto Puzzell · September 10, 2010, 12:09:40 PM

Between you and I, I don't know, either.

The first point is yours. OK to let the rest of the crew chime in with what they know about the builder?

1st to Quiller. Let's move this one to the 'hole

Paul Jaray · October 02, 2010, 08:20:52 AM

I've got a 2-page ad where it is simply called "The Sportswagon"

Allemano · October 28, 2010, 03:56:29 AM

Found it as 1973 Chrysler Sportswagon Mini-Van

Otto Puzzell · October 28, 2010, 04:41:33 AM

I'm sure it's built on a Chrysler chassis. I don't think the body was Chrysler designed or built. It could have been, but I doubt it.

Allemano · October 28, 2010, 04:45:24 AM

So, it's not what you're looking for?!

Otto Puzzell · October 28, 2010, 05:04:00 AM

As I stated above, I don't know for sure who built it. I'll give you a point if you can convince me this van was built by Chrysler

Allemano · October 28, 2010, 06:07:30 AM

The only thing I can do is this:

Otto Puzzell · October 28, 2010, 06:16:56 AM

Looks like somebody selling a brochure that doesn't indicate it is a Chrysler.

Allemano · October 28, 2010, 06:19:15 AM

Distrust everywhere!

Maybe somebody can tell on which fair it was shown.

Otto Puzzell · October 28, 2010, 06:27:34 AM

Dodge chassis were used by many RV manufacturers in the '70's and '80's, so I wouldn't be surprised by a connection. This one looks to me like an attempt to react to GM's advanced RV's of the 1970's.

I'm fairly certain it's not Chrysler. Majestic? I think I can confirm this when I find the Majestic logo...

Otto Puzzell · October 30, 2010, 03:45:45 AM

Interesting! Let's hope this one can be put to bed.

streamliner · November 23, 2010, 03:00:39 PM

Well, I thought I was on to something, but maybe not. Here's the interior of the Sportswagon. As I look closer, the logo on the steering wheel looks to be the "S" in Sportswagon. It does have a "Torque-Command" (Chrysler) automatic...

barrett · November 23, 2010, 03:07:42 PM

Oh no, I actually found the answer to this online somewhere but I thought it had already been solved....

streamliner · November 23, 2010, 03:43:19 PM

...So... You're saying there's hope?

Ultra · December 03, 2010, 03:42:20 PM

The door handles are just like the ones on my 74 Dodge Challenger.

Were you able to find replacements?
