Hey guys, I just traded a motorcycle for this burb. It has a 468, 700r4 and it runs GREAT. Needs a full interior, all it has are two bench seats. Anyway, here are some pictures, I am not exactly sure what I am going to do with it yet lol.

I see lots of potential there. I would drive it. I love Suburbans.

Sharp burb! I too see a lot of potential.

Main thing.........have fun with it!

I like it! If I was you, I would keep it and drive the wheels off of it.

Here are a few more pictures that I had on my phone. The last one shows the only rust I can see on the whole truck.

I just saw it for sale on craigslist.

**LockDoc** · 04-03-2014, 01:33 PM

What a cool Suburban! That rust is an easy fix. Put a rubber floor mat or carpet in it and drive it. That 2nd row 3/4 length seat is special for the burbs and has 2 clamps that bolt it to the floor in the front and 4 bolts behind the seat to hold it down.
