My 1970 suburban family truckster
Bought this a few months, well the wife and I bought together. Didn't take much to persuade her since it has her favorite color combo. Here are some pics

Re: My 1970 suburban family truckster
Good looking burb! Always a good thing to have the wife onboard with you. I just picked my first one up yesterday. I'll post a thread soon.

Re: My 1970 suburban family truckster
However I still had to cut a coil on the front springs to make it somewhat level

Re: My 1970 suburban family truckster
I don't think it'll be an issue but at the same time I haven't driven it with the whole family so it might need one. I really don't want to cut it up. But the wife is already talking about getting full on air ride! I didn't see that coming

Re: My 1970 suburban family truckster
Sweet ride, once you load it with the family and drive it a bit you may want to bag it also, nice roof rack btw.

Re: My 1970 suburban family truckster
awesome burb I love the roof rack and original paint If you do end up bagging it one word. Accuair.
The only air management system to consider using.
