I don't have the broadcast sheet. The passenger side front floor pan was patched, the storage well in the rear was replaced with another, and both sides in the rear behind the wheels had metal replaced. All repair work was done in metal, but not by a professional (should be redone). There may be...

I agree, about "the true sense of the term", but it did survive, where most from that era rusted out before the end of the seventies and/or were destroyed as derby cars. The only mod is the stereo (I have the original wheels/hubcaps), so it's not that far from stock. A true survivor has it's...

I can't speak to the first award (it came with the car), but the second award was 1 of 3 given out at a show attended by about 40 cars (only 1 category & 3 awards total, all selected by the hosting club members, not the show participants & their buddies).

A picture is worth a 1,000 ...

New lower price ($4,900) and another car show award. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/cto/5051111171.html

I'll probably have 5 originals from my 1970 Custom Suburban that I can let go when/if my wagon sells this weekend (and the new owner only wants the AR turbines that are on it).

The dual bulge hood was used on the entire Fury/Suburban line up in 1970 ONLY (no matter which of the 4 engine choices were selected). The hood turn signals were optional. The hideaway headlights were not optional on any wagon, but they were standard on the top of the line "Sport Suburban"...

Sorry Jer, intention was not to limit your comments, but just get the correct info out there. The original post headline contained "Centuria, WI" and you are right about the flying vermin in both states (though it's the St. Croix river that divides MN from WI where I cross NE of the Twin Cities).

No, nobody came out and I was not interested in owning it, (as my wife is already on my case to get rid of my wagon) but for those of you that are interested (and not falling for BIGBARNEYCARS misinformation), the correct contact information is: 121 State Rd 35Centuria WI, 54824 715-646-1428

Saw this on the way to my cabin yesterday (on a used car lot, but no price).

My wife actually congratulated me on the award (but she still wants it gone). My hope is to still have it in 2 weeks to be at the Mopars in the Park show with it (especially since I already registered and paid).

I went to a multi-makes car show today at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds where the hosting club picked their 3 favorite vehicles to receive awards, and much to my surprise, my 70 Custom Suburban won one of them. I was out walking in the swap meet area and when I returned the award was sitting...

On the first trip in our family's brand new 1970 Custom Suburban from Minneapolis to our cabin in western Wisconsin we experienced a major design flaw. Our 9 passenger wagon had no AC, so we had all the windows down until we got to the mile long gravel road where my Dad had us all roll our...

Price now $5,900.
