Another great find. Just changing the wheels will make that better. Happy Holidays to you and your family. Did you get the rear seat as well?

Re: my new 1963 GMC Suburban.........

Congrats on the score! I really do think that you need to get rid of those old Cali plates! How bout you send them to me so they can be disposed of properly!! Seriously though, that is a great Christmas present and a nice find.

Nice score Pat

It must not have been driven in the UK if it still has the California plates on it.
