Suburban High Top

I have seen a few of the mid 80s suburban hightops around and just wandered if these were factory or were they converted by another company, was the purpose for just more headroom?

I've never seen one! You have any pics? My guess is that they were a conversion.

I searched all over the web and only found one. It was an ambulance conversion, which makes sense.

I used to see them in Michigan around Detroit. Most that I saw were Starcraft conversions...
