Hello, and greetings from Minnesota.
Glad to see an active forum site about these trucks. Sign up went smooth as silk. Confirmation registration email was sent to me instantly, and boom, here I am...
Giving serious considerations to purchase a '96 Suburban k1500. It's sitting beside the road with grass growing up around it and two flat tires, two blocks from my house. Rust amazingly (Minn.) isn't too bad.
Fellow says he'll sell it to me for $800.
All the doors open and close good. No rust in jams. Barn doors work great. Interior is in good shape too. Has a hitch, brake controller The L31 has oil that is dark but not black, and at proper level. Trans fluid and stick look clean. I took a peek at it even tho' I have not heard the truck run yet.
Have a battery for it that is holding a charge. Hope it will hold up under load. Plan to go over there tomorrow and fire 'er up.
I'll post some pics irregardless of whether, or not, I hear the truck run and take it for a test. Owner is often not at the shop, and lives outside town.
-Cheers, lee
