FOR SALE: 1999 Chevy Suburban K1500 4x4 210K miles w/ new engine installed at 199K

I bought this Suburban from our local mechanic who used it as his daily driver. He replaced it last year with a new suburban and put this one in his garage and was going to save it for his son who is 12, ut decided to sell it. Our mechanic purchased the vehicle from one of his customers and made the following repairs/modifications with his estimate of the cost in parenthesis:

Our mechanic bought it from one of his customers because they were having a problem with it. Our mechanic chased the problem, eplacing the parts only to find out it was a$80 sensor. He also set it up for towing a truck he used for some sort of mud racing.

With any 17 year old vehicle there are little issues. There are a number of round dents from softballs, long scratch along the driver side, he cruise control works but the dash light doesn’t, ome of the dash lights on the radio are also out. There is a little rust under the driver side doors and the rear sheet metal on the passenger side rear between the wheel and bumper was removed because of rust. I never noticed it when I was looking at it until the owner mentioned it. He also placed “SS” and “Z71” stickers on the vehicle, ut it doesn’t have either package. There is no spare tire.

We originally purchased the vehicle to tow a camper/trailer. We bought the truck and never bought the camper. We purchased it with 209K, t now has 210K. I used it to run around town and in bad weather drove it to work.

It starts and runs great. After sitting 2 weeks in the cold it started right up.
