72 GMC Jimmy 4x2 or 71 Suburban 4x2 big block

[gcm]

Hello All

I have been reading posts and questions on this blog/site for a few years and usually end up finding what ever I am looking for on someones post...which is awesome. For the first time ever I didn't see it but then again its is a very specific question

So I found a 72 GMC Jimmy 4x2 350 automatic medium blue but has been repainted Iroc Blued. It has the glove box sticker.....I know from reading the blogs here that could be one of 400 and maybe 120 that came to Canada (where i live).....Now the Jimmy is being sold for $17,000 which is a tad high i would guess but seems to be fairly clean and the owner isn't sure if the 350 is original or a just another 70's 350 that has been swapped for the original....he has the original transmission but needs a rebuild but has a new 700 transmission matted to the 350 which seems to have been upgraded.

Now the Suburban is all original the owner even has the build sheet and the glove box build sheet.....it is a factory 402 big lock auto, with factory tilt power steering, factory tachometer and bucket sits. Its a Bronze color with a white roof and its the tail gate style not the door 3/4 ton 4x2 C20....so seems like a total of 1203 were build but cant find how many of the 1203 are big block, or have the tilt and bucket sits.....I am also aware from reading on this site that GMC's are more rare but harder to confirm as it seems there is not very good records of it. How ever I believe from what i have read that chevy factory big blocs are rare (correct me if I am wrong)...the price for the suburban is $11,000.

So which is more rare between the 2? and would you recommend to get?

thanks
