Re: 1972 White Suburban - the family toy

Thanks for the welcomes. I was looking for a station wagon when i came across the suburban. After I saw the ad, there was no turning back. Nice to have a fullsize toy after about a dozen VWs.

Norris, well Chuck Norris is 9 months old and already 31 inches tall. The lady we got her from had an accidental litter and was going to let her kids keep her but decided 3 Danes was too many. Her youngins named her Chuck Norris since she was the biggest out of the litter.

Turns out the 350 as advertised is as I expected a 307. Really wasnt an issue with me as long as it ran good. The burban was built in 10/71 and the engine code is V1018TDL, so it was made in Flint on October 18 and its a 135 HP for a C10-C20. Eventually I would like to do a 5.3/4L60 swap, but that will be a bit.



This was the last project that had to find a new home. Norris would ride in the back seat, but that didn't leave enough room for a car seat.
