I have owned this Suburban for a few years and have improved it along the way to make it the well rounded vehicle you see today.\r\n\r\nI purchased it from a local janitor from the elementary school down the road who owned it for several years and babied it the whole time, always storing it inside. More information on it's history is available on the Carfax.\r\n\r\nThis is my first BaT auction and I am excited to see how it goes. I have a fair amount of experience with purchasing, owning, and selling collector vehicles and am definitely willing to help the buyer set up shipping with a broker I've used several times. \r\n\r\nI will be available throughout the auction to answer questions, take additional pictures, or arrange for an in person showing.\r\n\r\nThank you and good luck!", "likes": 6, "timestamp": 1731874140, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 16140986, "authorName": "kcmbat", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/kcmbat/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "Oh man, this is my Holy Grail!
