Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

Is there a public consensus on a best year between 1967 and 1972 per say?

Is it 1972 because of all the options available?
Is it 1967 because of the body style?

Who has a biased opinion? :)

1967 was not the first year - 1935 was.

67/68's I prefer because if the body style.

i like the 67....slant nose and lack of side lenses....looks killer on a hot rod pickup. but on a burb i really like the 71-72 best. my dad had a 72 when i was a kid and the more upright hood and blue bow-tie "floating" in the egg crate grill just looks best to me. now...if i could have 2.....i'd take a 67/68. also, you can't beat having all the better tech and options that were at the pinnacle in 72.

Yes you are correct. I miss worded my original post. Fixed.

Hopefully the title will make sense..

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

It was clearly 1970.......... because that's what year mine is :D

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

I like the front grills on 69-70 Chevy Burbs, so that's my choice.:metal:

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

Our Suburban is a '72, but I would love to have a '67 to haul our '67 shortie around....

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

I like the 1968 cause of the front end and the side marker lights.

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

Take a 72 and put a 68 front clip on it and all is good!

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

:agree:

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

I'm taking a 71 suburban and putting a 67 front clip on it.

Never been a big fan of the 67-68! I apreciate their sleeker style but it just isn't for me. Personally I like the 71-72 grill. It is by far my favorite. Right now I have a 72' blazer project, and a 72' suburban; and someday would like to get a 72' swb fleet Cheyenne. So no matter what it is if it is a 67-72 chevy truck my vote is for 72' as the best year.

all i gotta say is back then they were lucky to have a third door 66 and below has 2 doors so what im really sayin is back then they had to live with hardly any options so if you like the outside apearence of 67 or 68 then have a 67 68 if you cant live without the options then get your welder and cut it out and then reweld it if that doesnt solve it then un bolt it and bolt what you want on it

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

hate to say it but 67 68 ALL THE WAY actually 67 1st year and no markers but that nice style so 67

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

I am partial to the 69 - 70 models as I like their grills best. 71 and 72 have the advantage of factory disc brakes. Actually, I like the 63 Burbs about best. Two door, shorter and really great lines. I am going to get one one of these years.

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

72 big block with a stock frontend. Like the one I gave up. Karma gave back though.

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

67

69-70 Grills look the sharpest to me......

So we're all in agreement?

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

yup!
1967-72 subs are the best!

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

67s, my 68 will probably get the markers deleted to look like a 67

Re: Best Year 1967 -1972 Suburban
 

I like all years - '67-72. The '72 has disc up front... big difference for me, and the rear air looks clean. (interior roof line looks cleaner). I ended up with a '72 because it had all the options I was looking for - really lucked out (3/4, 4x4, front/rear air, tach, tilt, GMC, am/fm, rear barn doors. And, it's got a 454 in it and I wanted a big block. But I would have been just as happy if a '67, 8, or 9 had come my way too. I appreciate them all.
