Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"

Sounds like the interior is close to being completed with the body work and getting close to paint. I was in need of repair on the rear panel that goes under the rear doors. This part is not reproduced. I cut this part out in hopes of welding in a new piece. A fabricator friend of mine helped me (ie. did all of the work) to form new patch, tig weld and metal finish. He did an awesome job. On Sunday after my son's basketball tournament I had a few hrs to mess with the Suburban so I dropped in the engine. Without a leveler or LS engine cradle it took a little wrestling to get the move to bolt up to the mounts....Next up it to mate the trans to the engine

Thanks
Marc
