Vehicle Description
1979 Plymouth Volare Station Wagon
Why This Car Is Special
Over the two decades between 1960 and 1979, America's view of what
a compact car was had shifted dramatically, multiple times.
Initially they were austere cars, with minimalist powertrains and
few creature comforts.
The 1979 Plymouth Volare Station Wagon, like the one we have here
at Skyway Classics, was not that type of car. It turned out that
Motor Trend Magazine picked it as the 1976 Car of the Year in 1979
there was 44,085 Volare station wagons were built. This wagon is
one of them.
Mechanical
It is powered by a two-barrel equipped 145 horsepower, 225 cubic
inch "Super Six" engine which was an upgrade from the standard
one-barrel engine. It has power steering, brakes, air conditioning,
and it looks like everything else in the engine compartment looks
factory stock and original.
Interior
The interior is in a blue theme with its matching front bench seat
and rear seat, dash, carpet, door panels, and floor mats all in
that blue color.
It has again the look that everything is factory stock on the
interior.
Exterior
These are the kind of cars no one restores. A family would use
them, they'd rust out, and then they'd be junked. To find a Volare
wagon thats unrestored is very unusual, especially a blue one as
most were beige or green.
Ours does have the original wheels and hubcaps with whitewall
tires.
Conclusion
The 1979 Plymouth Volare Station Wagon we have here at Skyway
Classics may need a little love, but it is all there and very
unique.
It will make someone a good daily driver that you just do not see
on the street anymore.
