Ebay find of the day, 1974 Plymouth Custom Suburban. Looking a little crusty on the rear foot well I wonder about further up. According o the ad the wipers and passenger front door don't work.
This wagon needs to find a good home. If the shipping cost wouldn't kill me I'd bring her home from Tampa to MN.

I need to have woodgrain on my wagons. I think they need it to break them up visually. Surprising how crunchy underneath...would need an in-person inspection I'd think.
 
A few blemishes here and there, not bad. But where'd all the paint go on those inner fenders and it does look pretty crusty underneath. It would require a close up inspection. The t&t steering wheel is a good feature. At around $2500 might be a deal
 
These models don't appear to be the most valuable/appreciated. If its a little crusty underneath, "Fluid Film" the piss out of the underside and enjoy it year round while the quality C bodies are in hibernation.
 
wow, bring back memories. My parents had a 76 T&C same color but had the Woodgrain billboard.. My spot was always that rear facing jump seat. :)
 
There was a few of these wagons in Ohio or Pennsylvania a few years ago that got auctioned off, I'm waiting to see them resurface again. They looked to be much nicer, but this car looks to be a desent start as well.
 
I really nice example of a wagon that you can drive, but will require some wrenching. It appears to have all the heat related damage, plastic bushings in the WW wiper transmission are shot, the sheer force of nature is holding the WW reservoir in one piece, and the potting - insulation material in the electronic ignition module has liquefied and run down the firewall. From the inside, the dash has one crack and it appears the heater core has leaked out.

On the positive side, the bump for the spare tire well looks excellent as does the backside of the rear rocker seen past the rust rear foot well, all the plastic lights, lenses are there and not faded, missing a few letters.

It does not appear to have been re-sprayed or painted and the rust in the engine bay are on component and parts that typically receive a light protective coating. Tailgate looks great and the rear glass does not appeared to be scratched up or off-set.A few blue colored 3M wire taps on some of the wiring, but nothing too crazy.

My Grandpa bought one new in Michigan state cop blue in 1974 when he retired from Chrysler; he loved it very much. I knew I had "arrived" when he let me drive it. Memories vs dollars vs space, I have no where to store her, otherwise....road trip...don't forget to take sleeping bags for the back.
 
Looks solid underneath, except for the well in the back, and a big block car. Certainly worth the current price.
 
its a little crusty underneath,

Yea I don't buy the Texas 'Dry' in the description, remember Texas has a coastline, it's not the ocean but the Gulf of Mexico, all that crustiness is from salt air.

It's a dented up old rust bucket, look at the rear seat well, and looks like someone sprayed flexseal on the spare tire well to cover up something. And the yahoo trailer hitch?
Well we won't say 'nut'in 'bout that! :p
