Hello all,
Here is the 1952 Suburban I just picked up from Southern Colorado. It is virtually rust-free 9minus a few small holes in the floorboards. It has a yet-unidentified transmission and the complete original engine. ALL trip parts are in the car. This car has been sitting since 1971 when it had the trim removed to start bodywork to eliminate a few dents and scratches. Fortunately, it was removed and kept moisture from building up and creating any rust. I was told that it was a "high-clearance" package offered through the company for those buyers who needed a little extra ground clearance. Judging by where it came from, I would say that a few extra inches would have come in handy. It has 18" steel wheels and the original Plymouth hubcaps. Here is the problem. I don't know what I want to do with the car. I'd love to turn it into a mild cruiser, but have always enjoyed the look and feel of an original car. Have a look and see what you think. It won't take much to get her back on the road (engine work, brakes, fluids) but I want to do it right. I am putting a few pictures of it up to enjoy. I will be bringing it home via trailer this weekend. There is no rush to finish it, I just want it to be a cool, comfortable, classic cruiser.
P.S. - I love the old Texaco oil drum transmission hump.
