Re: It's official .... It's mine !

Well, I love a lifted 4x4 and have had many. All (2) of my personal vehicles are gasoline engines and get 8 to 10 MPG each. I was wanting a Diesel that would get much better MPG's. I found this suburban on CL and thought what a cool ride for a Cummins swap/restoration. When I was in my teens and early 20's I had a few 67 to 72 trucks some CST's with big blocks and some bare bone, no frill, no power steering or power brakes trucks. This 67 suburban is like a trip down memory lane. I did a restoration on a 1968 K20 truck my uncle gave to me in back in 1980. To answer your question, my answer is "I'm not sure" . I would like to leave this burb mostly stock but on the other hand I want a Cummins in the engine bay with a NV4500, Dana 60 front and 14 bolt rear. Not to sure I want the bench seating, I like quad captains chairs like the ones in my last suburban. It's great to find a mostly original burb but I don't know if I would be happy keeping all stock unless its worth a small fortune. I understand that were 120 1967 K20's produced and no one knows how many are left.
