Equipment
VIN V3A56K011035. 265/155hp V-8, 4-speed, NAPCO 4-wheel drive, hub caps and trim rings, Dunlop Radial Rover A/T tires, heat/defrost, folding front seat, AM radio.
Condition
Restored in 2010. Scratched up chrome and brightwork. Attractive but flawed paint with imperfect masking around the doors, a few runs, and a few scuffs. Small ding in the right rear wheel. Light dirt and wear on the older restored frame. A few cracks in the steering wheel but otherwise gorgeous interior. Restored before vintage trucks really started to come up in value, this Suburban nevertheless got a solid refurb with appropriate attention to detail. And the powertrain, while not represented as factory original, is the ideal combo.
Market commentary
Sold for $26,675 at Leake OKC 2010, but vintage trucks have of course come a long, long way since then and in Indy it was afforded an appropriate premium for its rare NAPCO (Northwestern Auto Parts Company) 4-wheel drive.
