Re: Show me your 55-59 Suburbans/Panels please
Dam, nice save on that truck 58 Suburban. Here's mine. 1957, former forestry truck from North Dakota. Original paint. 6 cylinder, 3 on the tree. I recently swapped all the painted{white}front end pieces with chrome.

Re: Show me your 55-59 Suburbans/Panels please
I was very lucky with the patch panels. They were in the back of the truck when I bought it! I had a '55 Panel truck at the time and I originally bought the Sub for $500 just to get the patch panels to use on my truck and then I was going to sell the Sub again and basically get the patch panels for free. But after I had it for a couple of weeks, I decided to sell the Panel truck and do the Suburban instead. I have 4 kids and thought they would like have windows to look out of. But that meant doing everything over again on the Sub that I already had done on the Panel truck (sub-frame, A/C, posi , tilt) plus the body-work. With time and money being in short supply, it's taking me a lot longer than I had hoped.
