2003 Chevrolet SSR in Ft Worth, Texas

Vehicle Description

Do you enjoy the open-air driving experience, but maybe you find yourself tasked from time to time with hauling cargo that just won't fit well in a normal car? Or maybe you just want the option of knowing you can have either if you so choose. If you're looking for a stylish, well-equipped vehicle that also offers all the versatility you could want, you'd be hard pressed to do better than this 2003 Chevrolet SSR. The automotive equivalent of a Swiss army knife, it's got you covered whether you're yearning for fresh air, have cargo to carry or both. And, with just only 335 miles logged since it rolled off the assembly line, it's as close to a new SSR as you can possibly find and a sure fire candidate as a collector piece!

The black hue, referred to as Smokin' Asphalt by Chevy, is a great match for the SSR's unique look. Think about the possibilities - hitting the road with the retractable hardtop in place to shelter you from the elements, or with it removed to leave nothing but blue sky above you. Each option seems to create a "Transformer"-like effect that causes this Chevy to morph into an altogether different vehicle. Those distinctive looks, especially the heavily curved front fenders and full-sized running boards along the sides, look decidedly retro and for good reason - many of the design cues found on the SSR are actually an homage to the Chevrolet Advance Series trucks of the late '40s to mid-'50s. Having been barely driven and securely stored certainly has its advantages - take a lap around and you'll see shiny, wet-looking black paint featured everywhere, accompanied by crystal clear glass and unmarked trim. The flames on the tops of both doors add a tasteful custom look.

Despite its retro appearance, a very inviting interior awaits you, decked out in ebony leather and equipped with a good array of options, including cruise control, power locks, power windows, power seats, a tilt column and air conditioning that cools occupants through no less than four registers on the dash. It's in great shape, too, just as you'd expect. The uncreased bucket seats are built with comfortable driving in mind, sporting high backs with integrated headrests. Your music needs will be very well provided for, as it's no mere stereo you'll find here, but rather a high-end Bose Premium AM/FM/CD Sound System. The truck bed in back is no mere novelty -it provides a good amount of usable space and looks great, as well, with its unstained black, carpet-lined floor accented by stained wood inserts.

Underneath that curved hood sits a fuel-injected 5.3 liter Vortech engine, capable of churning out a legit 300 horsepower. Teaming up with a 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission and 3.73 gears in back, it makes up a seriously versatile drivetrain, offering both off the line acceleration a traditional pickup truck would be unlikely to match, and an effortless, low RPM experience on the highway. Because of its relatively low profile, you don't lose touch with the road like you do with more elevated vehicles and, with its fully independent suspension, it's plenty nimble, so this is a ride that will actually bring a smile to your face, as opposed to a look of fear, as you push it through tight corners. It's also equipped with safety in mind, offering both driver and passenger airbags, as well as anti-lock power disc brakes at all four corners. This unique and versatile ride sits on Chevy aluminum rims - 19" in front and 20" in back, outfitted with Goodyear Eagle radials.

Complete with owner's manual and reproduction window sticker, if there's a collectable late-model Chevy, this is it. Call today!
