One day of updates
Hi All,
Not a big deal here - considering the transmission swaps and even rebuilt carbs probably worked on by others yesterday - but I got new side mirrors installed, removed the aftermarket window tint, and installed a new tailgate emblem. All in all a good day (everything worked out). ![]() Older tow mirrors ![]() new stock ones (yes, that is turned the wrong way) ![]() New back emblem and no aftermarket tint (came off real easy...just peeled off) - I have to say I like the subtle factory tint - seems kinda progressive for a vehicle from 1972 to have any tint. |

Re: One day of updates
Your suburban is looking really good! What color interior do you have?

Re: One day of updates
Thanks everyone. Below is a shot of the interior. The front seat was reupholstered but the back ones, I think, are original (sorry no photo there). Overall she is in real great shape...no where near perfect (notice rust behind back wheel) - but real nice overall. C20 - 350/350. Just got the burb this summer from Greg in Keene, NH (we call her Keene Green). I had just made a bunch of money selling an 05 Toyota Sienna - but as things usually happen most of that is gone before it got to go into the Suburban (insurance, new brakes for the Volvo, etc., etc.)...it's hard to catch a break - that might be the definition of life. I'd like to get the AC back up (compressor seized) - it's not that I really need AC, but since it was working relatively recently (couple of years?) seems like I should get it fixed before everything drys up and it will be really expensive to fix. I was thinking of switching up the differential or replacing the transmission with a 4 speed - but those are just dreams now that the moneys gone.
