Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban

Got her unwrapped and the tape pulled.







Dad had his truck out of the garage so I snapped a picture of it too. It was originally a LWB truck.

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban

Thanks guys.

I dont think dad will ever lower his truck. He did order a kit to put air bags on the rear to level it out, but he hasnt put it on yet.

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban

Well I have been talking to Mar-K about getting the upper trim and they are telling me they are not going to be able to make the upper trim that I am looking for. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Yes the upper trim. I was talking to someone named Vickie and she was talking to James. They did remember your burb. They said they didnt have the tooling to make make the curve to match the body line and it wouldnt fit right.

I'm not sure what she's talking about. All they did for me was to make the truck bed piece longer. No special tooling was required. Send her these pictures to help remind her, .
