May 4, 201114 yr For my love of large vehicles, I've never been drawn to Suburbans, for some reason. Classic lines, tho.
May 5, 201114 yr Author I usually gloss right over the fullsizers and go straight to trucks, so something like this catches my eye. I'm pretty much a midsize car guy.
May 5, 201114 yr I like those old 3-door Subs. The black paint along the bottom leads me to believe it needs more than rockers, a lot of ppl do that to hide rot.
May 5, 201114 yr Author Could be. But I suspect that this was a factory two-tone truck. Either way, a screaming bargain at $1,500 obo.
May 5, 201114 yr Pretty sweet looking truck... and Telford isn't too far from me I wonder what the condition is? Body mounts sounds kinda extreme, especially for a Suburban. Of course if I bought it, with my teaching background, I'd have to get COOLBUS as the license plate
May 5, 201114 yr Author Roger, I'd buy this thing in a heartbeat if I had the cash laying around. Body mounts are a common issue with these and all parts are available. It would not be too expensive to get the job done either. And, you could buy this and immediately list it on ebay without spending a dime and turn a profit.
May 5, 201114 yr Sweet Ride, I would love to add this to my stable of Suburbans, but the wife wants a gas mizer CUV. I keep telling her she would be safer and about the same economy for gas with using it for around town driving. Love the classic lines.
May 5, 201114 yr I don't know Camino, this one looks promising too... http://southjersey.craigslist.org/cto/2316488320.html Something inside is telling me that I should go and look at the one you posted. While I prefer the '67/'68 frontend styling of this generation, this '72 is calling to me. I haven't been able to take my eyes off of it today - it's been up on my screen at work since this morning.
May 5, 201114 yr That's a cool old burban. I really like the panel trucks of that generation, made '67-69. Those seem pretty scarce...
May 5, 201114 yr Author That's a cool old burban. I really like the panel trucks of that generation, made '67-69. Those seem pretty scarce... They sure are now, but when I was a kid a local oil company had a whole fleet of them... in black! They kept them perfect - always squeaky clean.
