Description:

Hello to all Ebayers!
I have been with EBay for several years and I want to keep my reputation with EBay at 100%.
I bought this vehicle with the intention of bringing it to California to add to my collection but I recently sold my building and lost the warehouse I was storing my vehicles in. I have a clear Florida Title that will be mailed to the buyer. The last picture is a copy of the title.
This Plymouth Suburban is located in a Copart facility in Riverview, Florida. I tried to sell it on Copart but this vehicle is a classic clean vehicle and they have a salvage yard and it's not the best place to sell this vehicle there. Copart inspected the vehicle about 2 months ago and it runs and drives.
PRICED TO SELL !!!
Here is the description I have from the previous owner:
You are looking at a rare 1951 Plymouth Suburban. In 1949, Plymouth revolutionized the US station wagon market by introducing the industry's first all-steel body station wagon, the Suburban. The Suburban featured a two-door body (plus tailgate) and seated six. The back row of seating folded flat to allow 42 inches of flat floor space, and became popular as a commercial wagon. This would make the perfect custom car or simply restore it back to original. The interior was redone in a pretty blue and white pattern. The brakes, emergency brake, clutch, trans, all work. The car comes with a newer 6 volt battery. There are areas of rust, see slide show pictures. The car has clear FL title that matches the cars original VIN plate. I am also including in the auction some extra parts that go with the car. Overall this car is in great condition for its year just some cosmetic imperfections.
This vehicle is Priced to Sell!!!

Here is some information about this car from Wikipedia:
Prior to 1949, Plymouth had offered only a 4-door woodie station wagon, which was expensive not only to build, but also to buy. In 1949, Plymouth revolutionised the US station wagon market by introducing the industry's first all-steel body station wagon, the Suburban.[4] In addition, for the first time in a low-priced car, automatic turn-the-key ignition/starter combination was introduced.[4] The Suburban featured a two-door body (plus tailgate) and seated six. The back row of seating folded flat to allow 42 inches (1, 100 mm) of flat floor space, [4] and became popular as a commercial wagon.
The Suburban for 1950 was accompanied by a four-door Special Deluxe wagon, the last of the woodies, for those wanting something a little more traditional. There were two Plymouth wheelbases, with the Suburban riding on the shorter 111-inch (2, 800 mm) platform (the Special Deluxe was 118.5 inches). Vinyl upholstery was used, as this was more hard-wearing for utilitarian use. Motive power was the Chrysler Corporation's smallest six, a 217.8cid L-head that produced 97 bhp @ 3, 800rpm.[5] The Suburbans rode on 6.40x15 inch Goodyear tyres, though a 6.70x15 inch Super Cushion tyre option with higher gearing was offered, as was a high-clearance 18-inch (460 mm) wheel option.[6] A taxi package was recommended to owners expecting to carry heavy loads, featuring heavy-duty chassis springs and shock absorbers, a 100amp/hr battery with a heat shield, and even heavier grade springs in seats and seat backs.[6]
