86 Suburban w/ 56k miles

Hey everybody!

I've been on this board a long time with many different trucks over the years. But I've never owned a square burb before this weekend. And I love it!

This suburban lived it's entire life at a summer home in northern Michigan. Never used in winter and only accrued 56k miles over it's life. It's only had about 3k miles put on it since 2006.

This weekend I picked it up in Traverse city, filled the tank, and drove over 300 miles home without a hitch! I even averaged 15 MPG. Just a super quiet comfortable ride!

The only plans I have for it right now are to rebuild carb, figure out why lock-up converter kicks in too soon, fix a leaking axle shaft seal, and just finish the little details. Most maintenance has been completed. It runs very well.

Anyways, here are some pictures with more to come!

Thanks for reading!
