HIGHLIGHTS: Southern truck! Nice, custom squarebody Suburban ready
to put in work! Great cool custom driver! A/C, 350 ZZ4 crate
engine, fresh repaint, lowered, many new parts!
BODY OVERVIEW: The body on this Suburban is nice and solid,
presenting as original sheet metal in good condition. Somehow, it
seems to have escaped the violent abuse so many of these trucks
suffered. Included in the photos is a picture from before it was
painted, showing the original body condition. Recently, a new
grille and headlight doors were installed alongside new bumpers and
a new windshield as well as new weatherstripping at the rear barn
doors. All four power window motors are new as well as the window
felts and run channels.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: This truck was repainted recently in its
original colors, owing a repaint only to the damage done by the sun
over time. During the repaint, it was finished in a matte clear
coat over top of the original dark blue/tan two-tone paint giving
it a mild custom appearance.
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: The interior condition is perhaps the
most pleasantly surprising aspect of this truck. If you've ever
owned a squarebody before, you know how these interiors begin to
look over time. Although there is some expected wear on the
driver's seat, and the dash is doing what squarebody dashes do, the
interior of this truck appears to be mostly original parts, and the
interior condition more than anything shows what kind of lifestyle
this puppy has been living! The headliner has been recently redone,
and a new Sony CD radio has been recently installed, but does not
produce sound. Nicer front seats are available, please see
photos.
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Under the hood is a 350 V8 ZZ4 crate engine
that was installed recently. The 350 is hooked up to a rebuilt
700R4 transmission. At the same time as the engine installation,
this vehicle was switched to carburetion from the factory fuel
injection. Underneath, you'll find a Flowmaster muffler, Energy
Suspension snubbers at front and rear, lowering spindles and a flip
kit. The exhaust gives this truck a little bit of rumble, but isn't
too loud and is certainly adequate for daily use. Sitting on a nice
set of color-keyed Ridler wheels, this truck is looking great!

WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: This is a good, honest, squarebody
Suburban that has been kept up and taken care of.
WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: This is a solid old truck that
has had lots of recent maintenance and upgrades, but it is not a
flawlessly restored show-truck-this is intended to be a nice driver
vehicle. If you're looking for factory fresh original, this is not
it!
DOES IT NEED ANYTHING? The radio powers on, but does not produce
sound. The oil gauge and reverse lights are not operational.
WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR? Anyone who has been seeking a
clean and solid mild custom squarebody Suburban from the south at a
fair price should absolutely consider this truck.
