1967 suburban 1/2 ton 4x4 part out or not?
I'm new to this site but really love it a lot! I can't believe it took me so long to join it! I have a 1967 suburban 4x4 1/2 ton with the tailgate rear. It has the factory 292 6cylinder with 4 speed. From what I've read and heard this is a very rare suburban, one of like 166 four wheel drive half tons made this year. It needs the normal rust repair on the rockers, a little bit on the floor, behind wheel wells etc. Of course it also needs a complete resto to be nice again. My question to people out there is this, is this thing something that should be restored due to its rarity even though it needs tons of work? Or would I be better off parting it out? It is from what I can figure, 100 percent complete except for the headliner. It runs quite well, drives decent. Everything seems to work, all gauges heater etc. just not really sure what to do with it. I'm more of a blazer Jimmy and Pickup guy. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, George
