Thats going to look sweet.

wow, that's worth more than my house! nice work..

Looks good Joe! Now get those new doors painted today, and installed tonight. :)

WoW! That is sweet... That 502 sure would look nice in my burb... ;)

Another great burb in the works. I like your frame detailing, with the hieght it should show nice. I assume you might be running a larger tire in the end? I would need a spring board to load up!!

great to see newer members jumping in with the projects too.

WOW nice engine too

Wabash Indiana! sweet... I graduated from Southwood HS and use to tear up the strip cruising in Wabash!

WOW - great project. Keep us posted with plenty of pics to drool over :D

are those trees or veins on the pass door? nice toys...

Can you comment on the wooden bed removal. Was it easily removed once the body was off the frame? Do you suspect a one piece bed will be able to be fit... or will a two piece bed be necessary for reinstallation? thanks

Holy Crap! This thing is going to look awesome!!! What is that, 12 inches of lift? I'm assuming that you are going to put a heavily built automatic in it, 4L80E or what?

the wood bed floorwas really pretty easy it came out in one piece,planning on putting oak slates like a truck floor,yes it has a new tci trans with new converter, thanks everyone for the feedback.

Sweet! 502 and tci good combo!!

Joe, That thing is gonna be wicked!!!!! I love it! Talk to you,later on this week.

just came inside from working on my sons suburban,got brake booster painted and mounted back on,also got steering colum painted and put on steering is all hooked up waiting on billet steering wheel to get here mabe this week.just about ready to start wiring caint wait! post some more pics this week.

Yeah! I got to tell you all... I sure wish there was more activity on this Suburban board! It's the first board I check when I log onto the website. I just dig looking at all your pictures and reading about your suburbans. In part, it's because I'm planning on fixing up mine!

Keep it up!
