Slammed 1970 Chevy Suburban at the Goin’ Hard Booth

Normally, I’m not a huge fan of slammed cars or trucks, but this Suburban is different. I found this creation over at the Goin’ Hard Wheel booth along with another cool ride I’ll talk about soon. See more…

The 1969 thru 1972 Suburban was produced as an answer to the International Travelall and the Jeep Wagoneer, but with one unique feature: It came with only 3 doors. As odd as that sounds, previous Surburbans were only 2 door Sedan Delivery vehicles with interiors and windows. When was the last time you saw one?

I have to say that the paint job is super, with a hint on metal flake in the deep burgundy color. However, it is spoiled with ghost images of the “Tap Out” Company Logo all over the car, which really spoils the understated image it otherwise projects.

Under the hood is a modified Chevy Big Block, and is otherwise sanitary. The only problem I can see is the missing inner fenders under the hood, which I believe was done to create that slammed appearance. The interior is very well done, with no over the top surfaces, with black leather covering both bench styled seats. Even the dash board is mostly stock. It’s actually a well done custom, but needs to be completed, as the AC isn’t quite functional yet.
