66 Suburban project will begin this year
Hello,
Hopefully this year i'll get to start on the 66 project, we picked up this nice suburban few years back for around 2k and all in all it's not in bad shape! but i'd like to redo it. |

Re: 66 Suburban project will begin this year
last year we picked up an 80's chassis, as we are planning to change out the front cradle and make it front disc brakes and power steering

Re: 66 Suburban project will begin this year
Nice looking Suburban. I noticed it has 4 sliders. Does it have all the seats?
Where was it built? |

Re: 66 Suburban project will begin this year
not sure where it was built, i'll get back to you on that.
it just has the two front seats, but i don't think they are original, I believe the previous owner took bucket seats out of a van, lol and also mounted an above center console from a van. I'll have to see if I have pictures. |

Re: 66 Suburban project will begin this year
The front sheetmetal doesn't look that bad, Personally I would rather repair whatever is wrong with the original sheetmetal than deal with the aftermarket parts which will need to be reworked anyway.

Re: 66 Suburban project will begin this year
Don't want to hijack your post but just curious if anybody has put a complete 80's chassis under a Suburban?

Re: 66 Suburban project will begin this year
Right, plan is to just unbolt the front cradle from the chassis and swap.
