Re: 1971 K10 survivor

Kinda long for the Blazer forum, but it's a nice Burb for sure. It reminds me of the one my high school friend had way back in the 70s.

Done but for the price of additional photos please.

Any trace of the outer paint band on the outer grill?

You can see the black band above bumper. The rest appears to have been polished off over the years

Re: 1971 K10 survivor

Awesome. Thanks for sharing. Being Fremont assembled I wonder if the build sheet remains tucked in some seat springs.

What's the story?

I just recently acquired it, it was bought brand new in Great falls MT.
The PO had it a dozen or more years. Obviously garaged its whole life. Runs and drives like expected for 76000 original miles. It’s the wife’s rig now😁

If I could pick a Suburban, I'd spec it out just like yours. Spectacular!
