- Petula Clark was still singing for Plymouth. This is the all new 1969 Plymouth Sports Suburban Wagon. All new meaning all new fuselage styling which was the Corporate Theme of Chrysler from 1969 thru 1973
This was my first car in 1977 I was 19.. It was a 1969 , same exact color. Rusted floor boards in the very back. All electric. And eventually a short caused it's demise. I paid $100 and drove it with joy with all my friends piled in with tons of room. Great memory.
Beautiful wagon. Rolling American work of art.
my father bought 4 new Sport Suburbans over the years from Holley Motor Company in Tyler, Texas - 1968, 1970, 1972 and the Gran Fury Sport Suburban introduced in 1975 They were all great wagons my mother carted my friends and brothers and me to Cub Scouts, flag football practice etc. we hung out the back window and somehow we all survived! All the neighborhood moms drove station wagons during this time - much more stylish than minivans would ever be!.. in a plethora of colors too .. Sunfire Yellow, Coral Turquoise Metallic, Sherwood Green Metallic, Aztec Gold Metallic to name but a few.
japanjack62 wow!.. incredible.. my dad's '70 Sport Suburban was Sand Pebble Beige too and the '72 was Sunfire Yellow with black interior (minus the Brougham Package which I distinctly remember) the best options were tailgate assist handles and dual air conditioning.
If I could only go back to that era for a month, it would be heaven. Some of the shots done along the country highway make me wonder if they didn't shoot this up here in Oregon. Most of the time, they shot scenes in L.A. In those days, Oregon was mostly rural so it wouldn't surprise me if this was shot somewhere up here. Another wonderful post. Thanks, Osborn!
more beautiful than anything today
Nah it's pretty ugly and boxy
Had 69 ply 4 dr ht and a 70or 71 Dodge wagon like this....loved Chrysler cars!.
I had a 1969 dodge Monaco wagon with the 383 CID engine and 4 barrel carburetor and dual exhaust. It was set up with overload shocks and a extra leaf spring in the rear end. I got it used in 1975 from the branch office of the state newspaper and used it to haul newspapers from the printing plant to my hometown. That old wagon could haul all that and still outrun my best friends Mustang. When I went in the Air Force in 1977 I parked the car at my dads home and a drunk driver plowed into that car when my mom parked it on street in front of their home. The car got pushed back 100 feet and thankfully no one was driving or on the sidewalk at the time of the crash. Insurance paid for that old wagon. I missed that old car as it did not appear fast but it could haul the bacon loaded or unloaded.
"...haul the bacon..." 😆
It's bad that I'm 19 and I want one of these extremely bad
Weston Starling well im 18 and i just saw the 1967 plymouth line up commercial and gtx is the one i want so bad
If you can find one!
It's bad that you have taste?
No its. The 69 look station wagon w Petula singing. It's class!
I don't get the point of stating your age, but these cars aren't really so common any more. You'd be better off with an eighties Colony Park. Same length, also has the two way tailgate, just isn't as stylish.
I was born in 1960 and growing up in the 60's EVERY family had a station wagon!

Not mine. My parents considered them tacky. They always drove 2dr or 4dr hardtop...usually sportier models. We also were only a family of five...with three children.
That was indeed the norm at that time!
And enough children to fill it.
Now there's a wagon that I haven't seen much of since I was a kid!
...Back when blue was bold, beautiful, and cool!
Makes me long for the '71 Plymouth station wagon with a 440 my dad had.
Dude, I like this car at 15 and I just dream about it.
Plymouth must have talked to Spanky and Our Gang about "Sunday will never be the same".
Right? I thought I recognized the melody as "Sunday Will Never Be the Same".
That two way tailgate freaked me out as a kid and it still does.
why?
@@727100bear swings one way then the other. What kind of black magic hinges does that thing have? 🎅

Salesman: “This here is our brand new Plymouth Sport Suburban”
Guy: “oh nice, is it called that because it has a sporty ride?”
Salesman: “No, it’s called that because it handles like a sports stadium.”
i was wondering where I've seen the red heart that was on the key chain at the end of the commercial. It was used on the ad promoting Petula Clark's 1968 television special in which Plymouth sponsored.
It was not just on the Petula Clark commercials, Plymouth used this logo or symbol for about 3 to 4 years, 1967 thru 1970 as far as I can tell. I have never quite understood the origins or meaning of it? I did think at the time, that it looked very much like the Catholic Organization, "Marriage Encounter" groups logo, my parents had a decal on their car for a while with that symbol...it's similar but not the same.
I believe that was the special around which she had a battle-of-wills with Chrysler, which was afraid of offending customers in the deep South, over her duet with Harry Bellafonte. She held her ground and the duet was part of the show.
I found out that the heart with the hook is part of a highly successful ad campaign that started in 1967. The Plymouth is out to win you over this year, campaign. I think win you over suggests like a man wooing a woman or vice versa.

Looks like it was filmed just outside of the San Francisco Bay Area.
I was thinking the Los Olivos area next to Salvang.
i have a freind with one in great shape in his backyard with a 440.
Had a 1970;T&C. A 1970 super bee rear ended me on New Years morning doing my paper route.
These cars could haul a lot of empty beer bottles and wine bottles back to the beer store for refund
I never knew this existed 😳
These cars could sell for $50.000.00 in Canada and since Canada has lots of gasoline should not be a problem filling up the 40 gallon gas tank
23 gal, and tank is not centered, but sits along left-rear quarter panel, so these cars were a target for gas theft, since they tend to lean left with a full tank! - j q t -
Какая дивная песня))) Музыка замечательная, а текст ещё лучше)))
Whatever happened to car commercials? What happened to cars?

Looks similar to the 1969 Plymouth Belvedere Station used in the 1st 2 seasons of the Brady Bunch
Robert angermiller This is a C body, the Fury, The Brady Bunch used the intermediate sized car, Satellite a B body. There is similar styling explained by the fact that the Chrysler Corporate theme of "Fuselage" was used on both cars, but they are actually quite different cars and very different in size as well.
@@OsbornTramain I find it ironic that despite the Brady family having six kids (eight people including the parents, and nine including Alice), they didn't opt for the full-size wagons.
@@NESherv I always found that odd too! I would have loved it if Carol would have got a Chrysler Town and Country. They were getting a new Chevy Caprice convertible every year but had that one Satellite wagon for years. I surprised Chevy didn't supply a Caprice Estate at some point. They needed a new wagon for 1974 season - a Buick a Estate would have been awesome to see them get.
Actually, the Caprice convertible was only in the final season, and was in fact the only non-Mopar car during the entire series. I’ll
Defer to others about Carol’s wagons. Mike had several different Chrysler convertibles until ‘74.
