My latest toy

[smfdco1]

Back during the summer I obtained a '69 GMC Suburban Ambulance to restore from a friend. He had a bodyshop repaint it and was just beginning to reassemble it when a job change forced him to give up on it thus it had sat outside for the past 5 years. I got it home in September and so far have done some paint work to one side, buffed the entire truck, started to put the trim moldings and lights back on, begun to reinstall the emergency lights and equipment and repainted the engine. I am also replacing the original (from 1969) belts and hoses. This truck has only 5,047 actual miles on it, documented by the Virginia annual safety inspection receipts found in the glove box. The attached photos are from the day I towed it home behind my '96 Suburban, during some of the work to correct flaws in the paint and as it is today. A lot of work remains and thanks to this forum I have been able to find answers to a lot of my questions. Thanks to those that share their knowledge.
