1986 Chevrolet Suburban 3/4 Ton 4x4 on 2040-cars

1986 Chevrolet K20 Suburban

Up for auction is our 1986 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburban.   This is a very well maintained vehicle with seating for 8 passengers.  The interior is in fantastic shape for a 28 year old truck.  All interior and exterior lights and gauges work perfectly (even the analog dash clock).  It has 3 rows of seats, all are without stains or tears.  The carpet is also in wonderful condition showing minor fading but no stains, tears or holes.  The dash pad has two thin cracks, one above the speedometer and one in the speaker opening.  All of the power windows function properly and smoothly.  The rear windows from the driver’s row back have been professionally tinted. Overall, the interior is nicer than most 2 year old vehicles you see listed on eBay.

The Suburban has 99,987 original miles on its  350 V8 and 3 speed automatic transmission.  This was the last year for a factory carburetor and no emission controls in 3/4 ton and up trucks; which means it has a factory dual exhaust without catalytic converters.  The Suburban  features a factory towing package and 40 gallon gas tank.  Factory luggage rack.  Front and rear air and heat (air conditioner compressor functions properly  but needs recharged).  The four-wheel drive works flawlessly both in high and low range.  Recent upgrades include:

·         New headliner

·         New tires with less than 3,000 miles

·         Upgraded to dual master cylinder

·         New windshield

·         Rebuilt front end

·         CD/mp3 compatible stereo

The Suburban body is in good shape for the year and this particular body style. The two-tone blue and silver paint shines nicely and presents very well.   The red pinstripes are straight and un-cracked.   There are a few spots where the paint is starting to bubble over the driver’s side front and rear wheel well arches.  Also the paint is starting to separate from the body behind the rear wheel wells just above tail pipes.  Just under the driver’s side long rear window there is a small rust spot starting.  Inside both front fender wells there is a small hole in the factory under-coating.  Behind that you can see factory blue painted metal.   If you are familiar with this body style suburban, these are all the typical problem spots; however none of the areas are very advanced and all-in-all it is in great shape.  There is an un-creased dent on the driver’s front door where the towing mirror mount meets the door.  It could be easily popped out by simply removing the interior door panel and pushing it out.  All of these issues are featured in the photo section.  I have listed all of the “problems” I can think of.

This suburban is very mechanically sound.  It starts every time and runs down the road straight and true.  Drive it anywhere in comfort and style.  It will make someone a great family truck, camping vehicle, work horse, first car……?  Try to find another 3/4 ton 4x4, this well maintained for such a low price.  We are selling it simply because we have run out of garage space and have two other Suburbans.  Located  in central Illinois, feel free to come and take a look if you are in the area.  Email, call or text (Six 1 eight) three 67 two eight 6 three with any questions.
