For Sale: 1961 Chevrolet Suburban in Concord, North Carolina

This ain't your soccer-run kind of SUV. This classic 1961 Chevrolet Suburban Restomod is on a full air ride suspension, has a big 454 V8 under the hood, and is dripping with the cool that only comes with the best patina custom classics. And everything from the overdrive transmission to the custom bucket seat interior ensures you know this low rider is a proper true cruiser.

This is a great year to have a classic Suburban. It was part of the rare few years when the body has a wraparound crease, proving the 1960s were a great time for designers even at GM's truck division. And the patina style is irresistibly cool. But while the look of the finish may be about being lost in time, the details prove this is a bit more thoughtful. The panels look quite good in case you ever wanted to go with a high gloss finish (but why would you ever?) And the upgraded 15-inch wheels are a bit incognito because everything looks quite stock thanks to the classic hubcaps and how the white coordinates with the bumpers, grille, and roof. And like a true Chevy truck, there are cool work-ready features like the large tow mirrors and the full-width roof rack. And those wide rear barn doors are ready for everything from hauling your business products to a day out tailgating.

The interior continues the cool and upgraded style. We like how the steel door panels, simple headliner, and worn-in steering wheel remind you this started life as a workman's classic. But when you spot the seats, you know this one is just a cruiser. TMI makes some of the best aftermarket bucket seats for a nice style and comfortable bolstering. You not only have them for the front seats but there's a rear set, too! Plus, there's a third-row jump seat for true Suburban-like people hauler capacity. Other comfortable upgrades include an armrest center console, cup holders, and an AM/FM stereo with Bluetooth. The driver's seat is a nice command position with extras like a tilt steering column and auxiliary readouts. And there are even air ride switches cleanly mounted in the dash so you can easily drop the stance everywhere you arrive.

A vehicle like this is not a real custom cruiser without major power, and this one doesn't disappoint. Lift the hood and see Chevy's big-block 454 V8. It looks great with the tidy style and color-matched valve covers. This motor is upgraded with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, and headers feeding the side-exit exhaust. You'll also spot supporting details like an HEI ignition and a newer aluminum radiator. And the clean undercarriage is part of the confident cruise style of this patina machine. That's also why there are four-wheel power disc brakes, power steering, and a four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive.

This custom build looks cool everywhere it goes, and it has features that make you want to drive it everywhere. So don't miss this distinct and powerful patina Chevy. Call now!
