Chevrolet Suburban 1972 Description
For sale: 1972 Chevrolet Suburban 3 door Carryall original paint survivor,same owner from fall1972 till spring 2015 when I purchased the truck. I have the originalwindow sticker, arranty card, nspection sheet, ey blanks,etc.The older gentleman Igot the truck from purchased it froma leasing company in 1972 with acouple thousand miles on it, nd he and his family used it for camping and fishing trips. He owned a service station,so the rig waswell maintained and cared for over the years. It'sa solid, onest, traight old truck with original 350 4bbl, urbohydramatic trans and factory 4.11 gears. Great candidate for a full restoration, r use as is forthose runs toHome Depot, ars N Coffee orcruise night at the Steak and Shake.Exterior:Original red paint still holds a shine, ut it's faded andthin in several places. Good enough for casual cruising, ut would need repaint for show duty. Typical dings and minor dents from use over the years.Has somelower body rust as shown in pics, ut no the sitting-at-the-bottom-of-the-lake rot seen so often in these era trucks. We only get 10 inches of annual moisture here in the land of the sagebrush and prickly pear cactus, nd sand, ot salt is used on the roads. We just don't seemajorrot here.Glass is good and windshield is new. Exterior chrome is only fair,pretty dinged all around and holesdrilled with screws holding some of the lower bodymoldings on. Extra holes drilled for camper mirrors in both doors. Overall a great driver quality rig and gets plenty of comments and thumbs up wherever I go in it.
Interior:Good original condition,front seatis tornunder the blanket cover and rear seat isin good condition.I purchased a roll of NOS cloth custom insert fabric from SMS upholstery that is correct for this truck. Enough NOSinsertfabric is included todo both seats.Original floormat in good shape other than a tear or two.Tear in original dashpad. Most everything works as far as I can tellincluding horn, ipers, eater, tc.Wiper switch has been replaced with aftermarket and aftermarket radio turns on but no sound.A couple of theheadliner panels are warped and have small cracks.
Mechanical:Starts, uns, nd drives out fine. When I got the truck I took it to a professional mechanic to be checked over and any majorrepairs done.Fuel tankand sending unit were replaced with new.Steering box was replaced with a rebuilt unit.No noticeable smoke, oises or issues, ther than a puff at startup, robably valve seals. There are a fewspots under truck if left overnight, ike most vintage trucks, ith onevery noticeable trans fluid leak. Haven't really looked into it, ust been adding transfluid occasionally. I put a set of 15 x 8 ralley wheels and 235/75 tires off one of my other trucks on it and they look sharp.Tires are in excellent condition. I will include the original steel wheels and hubcaps with the truck if desired.I've driven it to lunch and work several times and to a couple of shows and cruise nights, robably a total of about 150 miles,and itseems tight, ice and a solid driver. Doesneed shocks for sure, nd will needatuneup(misses occasionally), ossibly a carb rebuild, choke not working right, old blooded)and exhaust. It will need all the usual hoses, elts etc. Some moderate gear whine at higher speeds from the rear end, hich is typical of low geared rear ends.This is not a restored truck, ut a solid original platform to start from.
