Not OG paint and I have come to the conclusion it is just a crappy single stage paint.

Does a spare tire count?

Is that a custom job? Never seen a spare that was below the floor of the bed like that.

It's all custom made and raised composite bed floor.

WoW .. composite ... If it's like the boards on my deck it must weigh half a ton !

**HO455** · 01-25-2018, 09:05 PM

That's pretty cool!

It's a bit heavier but it helps for smooth ride and no maintenance. I can use it as a truck without scratching pristine varnished wood.

Very nice Jarrodblake!

Here's mine hauling a 3400 lb 11 1/2 ft cab over Camper, towing a 4000 lb 19 1/2 ft boat to Lake Tahoe, never got below 55 MPH and was passing people some of the time!!! Bad thing is I just sold it!!!

**special-K** · 02-08-2018, 10:29 PM

What a shame, nice combo. I just posted my '71 with slide-in in the "One That Got Away" thread. My biggest regret with selling.

I just found these pictures from last spring that landed in the wrong folder on my computer. Just a few square of shakes

Looks like a nice score!

Hope to see more of that over on the Burban side of the site.

thanks! after looking at every 67-72 suburban in the country for the last 6 months, I finally scored one I can work with for my project at a great price

it's clean inside, uncut dash, uncut doors, uncut wiring, etc., very solid with minimal rust and although sitting for a few years, drove on and off the trailer on its own

I'll get a thread going in the burb area soon..

We were going to a swap meet. People wont pay jack here at a swap meet. I see stuff selling here on the board for two to four times as much and need to be shipped. Shipping big stuff like tail gates just isn't worth the hassle. I did give a bunch of board members some very good deals on parts.

**special-K** · 02-13-2018, 08:02 AM

It seems flippers think the original and still the best way to buy parts is just their wholesale market any more. When their eyes bug out after being quoted what they would be wanting for it I just say, "Isn't that what you would ask?". It's not like swap meets are a bunch of guys having fire sales. These are the most dedicated and often longest involved individuals who, if not for them, there would not have been this hobby to turn to. Respect your swap meet vendor. Also, we can get a little gnarly out there in those few days, unlike the keyboard pecker taking a few minutes to list at over the top prices from his arm chair. So WATCH OUT!!

**davischevy** · 03-16-2018, 09:59 PM

I worked the Longhorn a little today. BTW it has a 700R4 transmission.
