New Owner

I just bought a Suburban yesterday and am really excited. I realize I have a desease and I don't have an answer to the question "What are you going to do with that?" but I couldn't pass it up.

Since we are almost next door neighbors I would like to see it also.
Maybe we could meet up some where in the near future.

Sorry to leave you hanging, but got half way there and realized I forgot the camera. I got it moved today and stored at a friends house for now until I can make some more room. Its close by so I can swing by sometime and take some pics. Its pretty beat up, but its 4wd and its a suburban.

Burbs for sale

Last weekend I went and looked at a 72 3/4 4x4 Chevy Burb in Marysville (exit 202) that is for sale. Not much body work to be done, but it needs a motor. Originally copper and white, with 3rd seat. He wants $2500.00 for it. Anyone interested let me know.

Hey Oldiron, I ended up buying one in Arlington yesterday. A 72 GMC 1/2 ton 2 wheel drive, 61000. original miles. Factory tach AM/FM Dark Olive green with parchment interier. Bought it from the original owner. I will be going down to pick it up sometime in the next couple of weeks. He lives on 172nd. Have you seen the truck?
Darrell...

A true lover of these trucks need not justify their purchases.

Hey Dan, I'm in marysville too and I just bought my first sub on friday. The guy bought it that morning, found out it had REALLY bad brakes - read none- and put it up for sale that afternoon and I saw it on my way home sitting at the corner of 2nd and state.
It was in the driveway 2 hrs later. 69 1/2 ton 2 whl drv, auto, pwr brks and steering. Already lowered but not well done.
It's my one year plan because our 99 yukon goes back next oct.

OK guys we have to meet some where and check out these rigs. Three burbs in one area on this board.
Sub-zero was on my way back to look at that burb on Sunday but it was gone. Looks like it went to a good home.
Keep an eye out for me and stop by for a chat.

Geeezzz I don't know that mine is in the same category as your guys. Mine doesn't have a motor or rear window and used to be a Forest Service truck so its all banged up and rusted. Love to get together though.

Canadian694x4,
I think they are only dreams at this point, but I need to get the motor/exhaust together and it should be a driver. It came with a lot of patch panels, but unfornately it came with the rust too. I'll have to buy many rolls of wire for the MIG welder.

P.S. I'm getting a lot of Drum brakes around here and might have to join the 4wd/4wd club. LOL
