Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"

The GG show was a success for many reasons. I decided to drive my 48 this year instead of trailering. Driving is mush more fun. Over 600 miles round trip with no issues. I got to see Bob's (OldNSlow) truck. Man is it nice. The paint turned out great. He has decided to sell it. Oooops did I let that slip.

I did a fair amount of research on wheel and tire sizes for the Suburban.,

I picked up some Delmo LS1 valve cover adapters from Travis or Pro Performance. Travis is great to deal with and he delivered the parts to me at the show and provided a show discount (win/win/win/). I also found a nice set of script valve covers for CHEAP.....Score.

I got to check out and talk with the owner of Delmos latest truck build. It was a very cool truck.

I also picked up the trim piece I needed to fix the one inner trim from the Suburban..

All in all it was 4 days filled with cars and hanging out.
