Re: 72 Suburban.

Welcome Navy! Your Suburban looks solid...I've been thinking when I get my body and paint work done that I would have a satin clear coat sprayed over the body color to give it a look like yours. It reminds me of most of the cars I had when I was much younger...I like it!!!

Nice looking truck and welcome to the board.....

Do you have any special plans for it or are you just going to drive it? Looks like a jump in and go to me.

Another K20 woot!

For as few that were made, many seemed to have survived

Re: 72 Suburban.

Welcome aboard! Looking forward to more details and pictures of your "Beast".
I like how the color works with the fall foliage.

I LOVE that this is the first question everyone asks over here.....stark contrast to the Corvette forum (at least the C2 section) where you immediately get chastised for using non-numbers matching oil
