Looks awesome KC!

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
 

Awesome! and I'm envious too, looking to add a 4x4 GMC Suburban to the garage one of these days. Curious about that rack, please post more photos when possible, thanks.

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
 

Thanks! Unfortunately I disassembled the rack to get it into my garage. The basket on top was homemade, but the crossbars look original. I'm not sure if the rack was factory or was an option? I tossed the basket because it was rough, but I kept the bars to restore them. Pretty cool!

Sweet! I'm curious about that V-6 - good runner? What are your plans in terms of restoration/modifications?

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
 

Hey there! I am diggin your 4x4 Burb also! I plan a full restoration, not show quality, but driver quality. Going to try to keep it original as possible. I am working on the 305 V6 right now. The engine was rebuilt approx. 10,000 miles ago, but it sat for 20 years and when they got it running, I think they ran it for a while on bad gas in the tank. Needless to say it jacked things up. Some valves stuck and pushrods bent. I got another running engine and I am working on swapping it out. Since the other engine was rebuilt and bored out, I will try to fix the internals, and hopefully have a good backup engine. I should probably start a build thread on this site, but haven't gotten around to it yet. If you are interested, here is my build thread on the 6066 GMC forum. http://6066gmcclub.com/showthread.php?t=49268

BTW, I love MT. My family has vacation properties up near Whitefish. Love it!! We get up there a lot! Probably move up there in a few years.

Our 66 Project getting ready to start, boight it the way pictures show.

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
 

Here is my new project. Originally purchased at Joplin Chevrolet (either in/or delivered to), Cashmere, WA. 2nd owner, came with window sticker and an incredible amount of maintenance documentation. Solid bones, excited to get started... Working on improving the mpg first. The original owner did an engine/trans swap to a 454/TH400.

Cheers!

Thats a great looking truck!

Are you any relation to the Jensen's from Boise?

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
 

Nice looking projects & additions to this thread. :chevy:

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
 

Blown240,

Thank you, sir. It is always a conversation starter and I love people, so it's a good fit.

No relation to the Boise Jensen's that I am aware of, lol.

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
 

Welcome to the forum :D

It sounds like you need a 4L80E trans. That will help drop some rpm's with what is likely 3.73 rear gears. Of course the other option is a rear gear swap.

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
 

Here you go!

Original 4x4, but the T221 is the only original part of the drivetrain.
