Gorgeous car. From a styling point of view the Volare is hot. I dig 1970s American car styling.  :wub:


Do you guys remember this dude? German Plymouth Volare owner from Hamburg!  :lol:

I
It's in a junk yard for a reason.  Aand it's in a California yard because the things rusted out so fast hy would not survive in a wetter area.  These things were recalled by the factory for perforation rust in the front fenders after only a few years.   The olny thing good about them is that there are so few of them on the roads.
