My 72 Suburban Dropmember Upgrade and More :)

It all started about 1-1/2 years ago when I decided to tear the suburban down and do some upgrades. The list of upgrades include front and rear Porterbuilt Exteme Dropmembers, Porterbuilt hood hinges, Vintage Air Conditioning front and rear, Hills Hot Rods inner fenders, detailed motor, shaved firewall, repainted frame, new tires, narrowed rear-end, Boyd Welding fuel tank and many more small details. Its getting close to being back on the road very soon!!!

Now on to the pics

Jeff, your Suburban is the reason I bought mine all those years ago! I fell in love when I saw this thing and I think it just happened again!
