It’s a Mopar Noah’s Arc. Two Newports, two Polaras, two Furies.
Well, almost two-by-two, but then again that lone 300 is the most desirable C-Body up there.
Some people are colorblind, and can’t tell one color from another.
When it comes to about 1965 to the end of the fuselage era, I’m Chryslerblind. Within a model year, almost all Chrysler products look the same to me in profile, from the lowliest Fury I to the Imperial.
There is no way that load could pass a weigh station anymore on a single axel truck…. times have changed in every respect.
Great photo! Thanks for posting it, Paul.
Totally legal today. Max weight on a straight single axle truck is 32000 lbs. This rig has 2 axles on the trailer sharing the bulk of the load. 14 wheel rigs used to be more common.
That white Fury III 4 door in the middle level could have been about 20 years from finding my driveway, but on closer inspection, I think it’s a 4 door hardtop and not a sedan. I would happily wait at the end of the truck as they are offloaded and take any that might be offered.
Neighbour had a blue 300 identical to the one pictured. If I knew that shot was in Canada I’d really start to wonder.
That was a rare car even back in the day
The 1965-’68 C-Body Mopars were popular here in western New York, the majority were four door sedans, both four and six window. Mopar buyers weren’t as taken with the stylish four door hardtop as were GM and Ford buyers, probably considered them frivolous. There were even a number of those Plymouth Fury I & II two door sedans.

Skegs galore! ’61 Caddy + ’61 Continental = ’66 Chrysler.
I have always liked the ’66 Chrysler products and that 300 is a winner!

While I like the look of all of these (a lot), I too cannot tell them apart, I would have believed they were all exactly the same model if told so.
At least two of these have windows open. Just the thing when a thunderstorm rolls through while on the highway.
You just have not owned the right cars in your life. 🙂 3 Furies, a Dodge, 2 Newports and a 300.

The load is about 30K pounds. Rig is less. It would be federally legal today.

Keep waiting, yours is the eighth C-body on the load… 🙂

I wish we could know what happened to these particular cars….if any survive today.
