Really nice and solid Colorado car. Second family ownership. I bought from the original owner in Colorado. This was a Colorado car it's whole life. It shows some rust, particularly in the driver side front fender and driver side rocker but the worst of it is easy to see. It is amazingly solid and rust free underneath and in most of the body.

Very clean inside and very solid feeling all the way around. Runs and drives very good. Starts right up with the turn of the key. It has newer brakes and a set of new shocks ready to go on. I looked at about 10 squarebody suburbans before buying this one. Although it has some cosmetic issues it's very solid and in better condition than the pictures reflect. No rust in the door jambs or floors, just in the rockers and wheel wells, which can be fixed in a straight-forward way. The frame is excellent and the body structure is solid and very repairable. You could spend $20k plus on a perfect suburban and it probably wouldn't be a nice as this one. With a bit of body work you'll have a very nice truck.

The 4WD works perfectly.

It shifts easily in all gears and reverse. Runs strong and starts instantly. The brakes are fairly new all the way around and they stop the big girl easily.

Runs down the road straight. This truck was never wrecked. The front driver side fender shows signs of minor damage and the original owner said his grandson hit a deer with with. The damage is consistent with that story. I would replace the fender and inner liner. The hood and everything else is fine. You could also leave it as is, it's not that bad at all. Just adds some character;)

The interior is very clean, though the dash has cracks from the sun and the front seats are torn. It's had seat covers on for years and years and they are getting torn up too. All the padding is there though and the seat aren't that bad. I would maybe replace the covers and keep going. The carpet is very clean and has the original floor mats in place. The door panels are very clean. Everything works though some of the windows are slow, particularly during the cold seasons.

This would be an excellent base for a restoration. Or daily drive it! I've been driving it on the weekends for about two years. It's all sorted and has a newer battery, newer belts and current maintenance is all up to date.

The 4x4 is really nice in the winter or to pull friends out of ditches:) It's a fun four by four.

The new owner can pick it up in Michigan or we could arrange for me to drive it to you (possibly and for a fee). I need to make another trip to Florida and Colorado soon...

I'm happy to help you ship it.
