Vehicle Description
This 1950 Plymouth Suburban is where the true classic car dreams
all come together. After all, you have the rarity of a Mopar mixed
with the rarity of a two-door wagon body. And this has a
time-capsule level of presentation, right down to the dealer
invoice from 1950. It is no wonder this nostalgia machine is
already an award winner.
Classic car fans should be intrigued by this Suburban. This one is
an interesting time capsule that represents the optimistic 1950s
with bold elements mixed in with hard-working practicality. The
standout front end is intact right down to the Mayflower hood
ornament. Plus, the chrome bumpers are so big and bright that they
look like they could push a train. But this classic Plymouth is not
trying to be a hot rod. So there is a refreshingly honest
impression that you see in everything from factory hubcaps to the
Brunswick Blue paint. It all has a nicely restored style where
there are especially clean lines while also not losing a true
cruiser attitude. After all, a classic wagon like this is great for
loading up a wicker picnic basket, chairs, and other provisions for
spending all day at the car show. Or maybe you have a product to
showcase from the wide opening two-piece tailgate.
The tasteful interior is pure post-war style. The tan on the seats,
side panels, and headliner has been redone with the kind of clean
but durable vinyl that made these Suburban haulers handy. The same
goes for the robust rubber floor. There's a nostalgic style to the
large steering wheel with a Plymouth logo center cap, long column
shifter, and bright panel with art deco readouts. It's a true time
capsule where the most noticeable addition will likely be the
seatbelts, and that's just part of this classic's cruiser
nature.
With a wagon that looks this classically authentic so far, it's a
delight to find the 218 cubic-inch six-cylinder under the hood. In
fact, we have paperwork showing the engine number on the block
matches the dealer invoice. The engine bay is tidy and quite
authentic, showing correct parts including the oil bath air
cleaner. The motor fires up easily just as a trusty Plymouth
should, and it has that wonderful mechanical sound that's sadly
absent from our cars today. The control of a column-shifted
three-speed transmission and plenty of torque makes it peppy around
town. Plus, a good ride and modern cruising tires make for a fun
Sunday driver.
The sale comes complete with the dealer invoice, maintenance
records, and more. It even has an AACA tag suggesting a national
award. This is a fun and distinct true classic that's irresistible
to fans of true vintage motoring. Call today!!!
