Suburban Flip

My buddy just bought this and I am helping him finish the project so he could sell it when it is finished. I work at this shop in my spare time building cars and trucks for customers in Huntington Beach. I have been building a Suburban for myself to be the twin of my Dark Olive Green Blazer. My Suburban is the same as this with a 6.0 LS and 4L80 updated drive train with disc brakes in all four corners. When I stop working on other peoples cars I might finish my Suburban.

We got the Suburban the way you see it in the pictures it has:

6.0 LS
4L80
4 wheel disc
Update three row seats
Semi complete aint job

Our plan is to get it running complete the paint orange with a white top and finish the interior

Re: Suburban Flip

I got sidetracked on a couple other projects My radio on my blazer stopped working and I ended up putting in new carpet redoing all the upholstery and installed a new radio. The green one has the motor in and I am working on the fuel system. I just bought a 53 ford truck Wednesday and I might get it done real quick to make some extra money.

Re: Suburban Flip

It looks like someone had a really good start on the orange burb! Those newer seats look like they fit in there really nice!
