Welcome to the forum!

Is this Suburban yours? If it is you must be a supporting member to post classified item. This includes but is not limited to What Its Worth, Want To Buy, Want To Trade, and For Sale.

If you are looking to purchase it, and curious if 1500 is a decent price. I would say that is a lot of truck for 1500, despite the body damage it is complete and unmolested.

bigblockbeast · 11-03-2012, 07:47 PM

not mine just want to see what others thought of price

The engine alone is worth $1,000 minimum with all accessories. The tilt is worth $250 minimum. The rest of it would be worth $250 in scrap metal. I would have to believe "the rest of it" has more stuff of value, just showing you that for $1,500 it will be tough to get burned.
I just can't see how you can go wrong.

i know the guy who owns it i want to buy it but i have no room

...

bigblockbeast · 11-03-2012, 08:33 PM

i want the motor and trans for my 72 chevy wagon, i will be pulling the org 350 out the wagon if i buy it, the 350 runs perfect 75k miles car, so i could maybe part out the rest if i pick it up

I NEED that front bench seat!!!!

I think you could part it and make your money back plus a little extra when you scrap what's left

nate_g_2003 · 11-05-2012, 04:55 PM

I think it's definitely worth $1500. What looks like a little bit of sheet metal (hood, fender, grill), and you could easily get double what you paid for it. Looks like a really good starting point for a resto project.

And I'm sure you could part it and make at least that much, especially for how great the interior looks in the pictures you posted.

I agree the motor mounts alone are close to $200 bucks.
