What are the plans for your truck?

So the other night after we put the kids to bed, My wife points out that I'm always on this forum looking for ideas for my suburban. So she asks, "What are the plans for your truck?"

I said that's a good question....so we started browsing the site together.

My first truck was a 85lwb bought it from my uncle when i was 19
then I bought a 83 crewcab 3/4 when i was 21 with the intention to cut the 2trucks up and make one swb 2wd crewcab. but that didn't happen.

I then got a 86 suburban that caught on fire bad electrical wiring. 23
then I got a 82 lwb 4speed rust bucket.

I had enough of old trucks and got me an 03 dodge ram hemi with 24in foose wheels. etc. when I was 25 that gas hog didn't last very long.

when i turned 27 i got a single cab 07 silverado classic.

Now 28yrs old have 91 Suburban with plenty of room for my 3 little kids.

So the plan is to take completely stock suburban or maybe if I find the right crewcab again and transform it into the perfect family hauler.
With some engine inspiration from N2TRUX and interior from Tvblazer78 and ojoe crewcab.
