Re: 53 Suburban..quick update

The paint still needs stripped in the center of the roof. My wife did all the stripping, and couldn't reach that. I have to hold the ladder for her to finish
And yes, it has that goofy roof vent from the factory. I'd like to remove it, but then I'd have to weld a hole shut about the size of a can of coffee.

As for the booster/mc....I bought a unit with a hanging pedal assm., and we just lined up where we needed the through the firewall brace and pedal to go. I can take a better pic if you'd like...

I can drop the rear fenders all the way down on the ground, but until I bag the front I thought it was too much of a reverse rake. So it sits down on snubbers for now.

As some may have noticed from posts I put of my other previous trucks, I'm heavily into wide whitewalls. I'd put'em on my 99 blazer if I could

Here's a pic or two of where the booster is. Maybe it'll help. I'm not too much into heavily detailed stuff. I just like cleaned up and functional.
I plan to drive this thing almost everyday when there's not salt on the roads.

And of my lovely wife hard at work. She's a keeper

Well, thanks for the kind words
