Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"

Well I got some garage time this weekend. First over the past month or so I worked on adding a 80K BTU natural gas heater. This should make wrenching during the winter months more enjoyable. I included a picture of the diver side quarter panel that I patched using a lower driver side door patch. A picture of my seat riser. I had to restore the bottom edge and weld up some small holes. Then it was sand blasted and put in primer.

The last two pictures are just to prove that I still have my Suburban..ha ha ha

I heard that Porterbuilt is getting pretty close on the AD kits. The body is now ready to come off the frame. I'm concerned how I'm going to separate the two. I don't have a hoist. Anyone out there that can share a method that worked good for you would be appreciated. I'm guessing just get a bunch of strong friends to help lift it off.


Thanks
Marc
