Location: sunny Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA		Seen this locally here in Albuquerque. Looks like its a gold mine of parts, and it'll probably go cheap. I've dealt with this fellow before and he's former military and runs a good ship. I sure hope it gets saved. Based on the plate, it's been off the roads for a loooong time.

Location: So. Cal		Finding that rear glass and seal is going to be a lot of fun. Unfortunately, when you are missing parts like that, it can force it into being a parts car. I don't think it is available anywhere except used from another car. Hopefully there is a really rusty car somewhere with good glass for it.

On the upside, the rear wagon hatch glass was the same for all 57-58 Plymouth, Dodge, Desoto and Chrysler wagons.

1697 727 for plain glass

and 1697 728 for tinted (SOLEX) glass.

However, the rear wagon glass was apparently different for the 59s:

1878 546 for plain (Plymouth, Dodge, Desoto and Chrysler wagons)

and 1878 547 for SOLEX (Plymouth, Dodge, Desoto and Chrysler wagons)

At least being common across two years and four makes might help whoever is searching.
