The Chevy is a HOOT to drive; It's like cruisin down the road in a Living Room, on stuffed bucket seats with electric controls, and windows views galore. You cannot go incognito in this ride.

This is the perfect vehicle for advertising your business, or just having fun.
If you can FIND a 72' Suburban up for sale, it won't be in this condition with this combination of features at this price!
NOTES: A buyer had purchased this vehicle, sent an inspection company to view it, was very happy with the results and went forward with the sale. He put the balance payment on Paypal, Though we wound up cancelling the Paypal transaction, not because of their high fees, but because Paypal put a 21 day freeze on the release of payment to this seller! Yes, they claim it is for the safety of the buyer/seller, but neither of us asked for a freeze, and in fact, Paypal holding the proceeds of the sale up, has no impact on safety for anyone, it simply delays the delivery of the goods. We cancelled the Paypal service, and in fact, I would NEVER use Paypal again for anything, because the whole sale wound up going away thanks to that debacle. The buyer used the Paypal cancellation as an excuse to cancel the purchase, it seems because he didn't like the price he was quoted by a trucking company, to get the Chevy delivered from NY to TX. So the car is back on the market, and this seller has lost valuable time. There was never any issue with the car itself, which was and is, still wonderful.
