Chrysler Town & Country K-car sells for $13,750 at Auburn | Hemmings Daily.
A Woodie K-ar
While it’s hard to discount the Chrysler K-cars’ historical significance (they did, more or less, save the company under Lee Iacocca’s leadership), most owners viewed them as disposable transportation, to be driven to the point of failure and then discarded.

Collectible K-Cars? Of course!!!! But did the K-Car really save Chrysler?
