Re: i am new here!!!

How well do you know yourself? Do you think you can spend years on one project if need be (without getting frustrated and giving up halfway through)? Do you have the necessary space to house all the parts as well as the body and frame separate from each other? Are you prepared to invest 2-3x as much money as you think it might cost? Then welcome aboard!
Depending on your skills, experience and the amount of time you can dedicate to it on a regular basis, it could be a relatively quick turnaround, or you could change your mind a few dozen times in the middle, encounter problems you never anticipated, have any number of events happen in your personal life to delay you working on the Suburban and it could potentially drag out for years with neighbors complaining about your yard decorations. It all really depends on the person, the circumstances and plenty of perserverance.
Best of luck whatever you decide to do though.
