Something else has grabbed my attention so I am going to put my 1953 Chevrolet suburban up for sale. Overall pretty solid. Will need one rocker repaired, a rear cab corner, and lower Cowl repair on passenger side. Patch panels come with it. Passenger floor will need some patchwork. Factory leaded seams will need some attention as they have started to show age. Nothing major. I was going for a driver so if your plans are a full resto it may need a little more than I'm describing. Frame looks good. Roller tires on original style 16" wheels with clips. All rare suburban window moldings are there. NO original seats- photos show an original style front seat that is no longer there. PO decided to keep it. But included are a set of front seats from a 47 to 53 panel truck. The motor is a Chevrolet 235, not wired up but have a short low-quality video of it running. My plans were to roll with it with no rebuild. An S10 T5 transmission with adapter plate goes with it. Grill is the painted style with slight surface rust but is straight and crisp with no apparent dents. Comes with a visor currently not on vehicle. Have some weatherstripping, quarter window glass, and other new parts that are included. Overall a great start!! $7000. Will consider offers. Pm me if serious and we can talk. Clear title. Goes in body shop soon, price will go up and may come off market. Located in Eden, NC at my family property. I live in SC. Rolls easy for loading.
