Jonesing for a 2wd Suburban!

[Tony_SS]

I've been looking and looking and can't really find anything near me that I want.

Ideally I'd like a 90-91 2wd with power mirrors, straight with no rust. If I can score that to work with I'd be happy!

I did find a nice one, but its one of those darned conversions with the leather and woodgrain and I'm just not into all that...

I want a nice cool lowrider to cruise with, pull a pop up and run the air this summer.... till then I'm going to keep searching..

This guy has been trying to sell this truck on ebay for months, he's trying to get $5500 for it. Very clean. He changed the woodgrain dash trim for the brushed aluminum looking stuff and put an S10 steering wheel on it, but otherwise one sweet truck - I'd like to have it myself.

If that wasn't a diesel I'd be giving it a real hard look! I do have to admit.. red is my least favorite color for the interior.. but if everything else is right, the red wouldn't stop me...

I never thought much of the 6.2 until I bought my military Blazer. Power is more than adequate and the fuel mileage is fantastic. I'd be all over that truck if I could.

[Tony_SS]

I'm afraid of not being able to work on it.. or it being really expensive to fix. But I dont know squat about diesels.

I found the perfect one in Houston but its pricey, and I'm 700 miles away from it...

Hey Tony! You might want my Burban after I'm done with it. It's a 1990 3/4T 2WD with a TBI454 and soon backed by a 700R4. I bought it with a cheesy burgundy paint job and tan interior. I since bought another 90 Burban with flawless dark blue interior. I'll be re-doing it in two-tone white/silver with a double blue pinstripe buried in the clear. I love those 89-90 Burbans too.

[Tony_SS]

Hey Jabin! I'm not too big on the 3/4 ton models.. too gas thirsty! lol but if your 90 with dark blue is a 2wd 1/2 ton set me up with it! Des Moines is just a day trip away.

That diesel clatter is addictive if you give it a chance and the mpgs are crazy. Power/torque-wise the 6.2 fell inbetween the 305 and 350 but are much more miserly on the fuel. Just a thought...

[Tony_SS]

Whats the deal with the ground effect kits? Can they be removed without jacking up the paint on the body?

[gmachinz]

Well the 1990 Burb I have that is 2-tone silver/blue is getting parted out-it's got some rust in some bad areas-and it only a half ton. That thing sways like a carnival cruis eship compared to my 3/4 ton one. Is the one in your sig. yours, Tony? Like in my 80 Cutlass, I plan on installing automated electric climate control and auto headlights in my Burban. Seriously tho-nobody drivers one with a concern for gas mileage-besides even with a TBI454 and a 700R4, it shouldn't be too bad.
Hey-this one is near me-I could check it out for ya-wheels ain't my thing but if the truck is clean....?

Here's this one...I seen it in person about 5 years ago-literally a show quality paint finish that was sold @ a small town estate auction...went for sumthin like $1500 bucks and has been at a couple of small car lots around town over the last few years. It has grey interior, 350 Goodwrench motor, rebuilt trans, suspension, 100% redone by the original owner before it got sold at an estate. Not sure how it's held up but 5 years ago this truck was way too nice to be a daily driver-inside and outside was flawless. I could check it out for ya too. First time I seen it at a lot after it sold from an estate, they were asking $5500 for it. This truck had new GM weatherstrip seals, fenders, hood, etc. when it was painted several years ago. I was painting an 84 Monte in my shop when my friend showed up with his buddy who bought this for $1500-he later traded it in at a car lot. It's been priced kinda high ever since so not sure of the shape now....might be worth getting...? idk...it's a 1/2-ton 2WD truck.

You should be able to fly Southwest in for really cheap, and drive it home.

Personally...I'd like a 73/74 or 75...lowered, with a 350 and working AC...but parking space is non existant in Los Angeles, and I already have 3 "projects" and my daily beater.

A flight will cost me about $350 unless I put it off 2 weeks then its $200, if he still has it by then.

Its a super nice rig but steep in price! I'm not sure I want to put all of that in up front... I'd rather buy cheaper and put in the money for a static drop on something that isn't so mint.
