Forklifts aid the moving of inop vehicles ....

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
Looks pretty sweet sitting low with the wheels. My Tahoe has the black spoke version which the PO installed. Although like you said, everybody seems to be running them these days. Kinda becoming the new Torq-Thrust that's been so popular over the years.

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
I disassembled the turn signal switch by drilling out the rivet. I completely blast/cleaned the inside thoroughly, and relubed with di-electric grease...

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
man... everytime I see a vehicle on the tongs of a forklift I cringe.. Looks like you guys did a number moving this thing on the lift from viewing all the damage to the door and whatnot.. ouch..

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
Not even close ....
All that body damage was already present. The forklift has proven to be an important tool in the shop, especially with moving inop vehicles, body lifting, and drivetrain pulls. Even an occasional pallet gets moved ... Come on man, you really need to give me more credit than that !!!

At first, I wasn't going to paint it .... just disassemble, clean and lube. But I wanted to try out the "caramel latte" paint. Regardless, it will all be disassembled again someday for powder

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
just found this one from a link about the power booster. I noticed the steering column rebuild pics too. Got to tune in for the rest of this one and use as reference when I get back to my '65.
