This 1969 Chevrolet Suburban has been restored to have a terrific
two-tone apperance, upgraded A/C interior, and a powerful big block
under the hood. It's amazing an all-around turn-key classic like
this is available today for such an affordable price.
Even if you use this as a family hauler, the recent application of
Surfside Blue paint will make any journey feel like an endless
summer. And the white has the same level of terrific gloss and
shine. This is all part of a recent investment in a quality
application. And when something is this shiny, only a bright trim
line to divide the two colors will do. Plus, the American Racing
Torq Thrust wheels add plenty of sporty nature to this appealing
package. All of these are cool upgrades to a classic Suburban, but
it gets the fundamentals right, too. This could have been a
workhorse, but we'll never know because the restoration was so
meticulous to erase any industrial past. Plus, there's nothing
cooler than watching a gawkier discover for the first time that the
passenger side is the only place for the second-row door.
Inside you'll see all the best factory pieces and all the right
upgrades. For example, you get the correct stylized pattern on the
seats and door panels that came of the top-of-the-line 1960s Chevy
trucks. But today they feel far fresher thanks to a solid
investment in factory-correct replacements. This makes for a
comfortable cruiser, especially in the bucket seats up front that
have a cup holder center console in-between. The driver gets an
upgrade three-spoke spores steering wheel, and beyond that is the
factory gauge package with crisp, clear readouts. But more than
just the driver, this Suburban's huge 127-inch wheelbase is enough
to carry friends, family, and all the toys (there's even a trailer
hitch behind the license plate.) That's why you have features to
keep everyone comfortable, like the provisions for an upgraded
AM/FM stereo system, and the modern R134a air conditioning that's
blowing ice-cold.
There's plenty of room in the engine bay, so we're glad to see they
filled it with big block power. The 402 cubic-inch V8 has added
performance of a Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Performer
intake. And while this makes huge power and plenty of rumble out of
the dual exhaust, there's much more to this SUV. The suspension is
the comfortable trailing arm rear borrowed from the C10, and there
are even sway bars front & rear. The transmission is a 700R4
four-speed unit with highway-friendly overdrive. Plus, you have
power steering, front disc brakes, and BF Goodrich T/As. Starting
to get the full picture? This classic Suburban was built to
comfortably drive near or far and carry all your gear, too.
This is the perfect classic that will make people jealous
everywhere from the school run to the boat ramp. And when something
this cool is also so affordable, you know you need to hurry if you
want to take it home. Call today!!!
