Picked up another project, 68 Suburban C-10. Body is perfect and COMPLETELY rust free, I just couldn't pass up on it.

Nice project, I have a clean 72 with a hatch/tail gate. What are your plans for your sub?


Sweet, my first truck was a 72 burb with hatch/tailgate. This one actually came with a hatch/tailgate as well as barn doors. I'm gonna swap the hatch on, move the barn doors to the panel truck, and get them both ready for paint. The burb will probably be painted before summer is over. I need to get it in a state where I can put the glass back in it and secure it soon. After that, small drop, interior, and wheels. Then drive the shit out of it.
 
Plans sound good. I need to find a job so I can start working on mine, right now it is just a shell and frame LOL. I already have a ece 4/6 drop, all new suspension and brakes, a 700r4 trans, 350 chevy block and heads, silverado ss front bucket seats and a nnbs tahoe second row seat. I still need to have a motor built, trans and rear end rebuilt, buy a wire harness, gas tank, radiator and some other stuff. I will definitely be following this thread.
 
apparently I've been failing at updating this thread... Truck has been in the body shop for almost 6 months now, progress is being made slowly, but it's progress.

here she sits after a few weeks into the body work

Interior is all primed out now

She should be ready to spray in the next few weeks, then I have the rigorous task of putting it all back together.
