JRLOOS12 1949 Army Suburban - Bagged & Patina'd

1949 Chevrolet Suburban 3100 Carryall - Army Edition
(Follow build on Instagram Also!! @JRLOOS12)

I picked this up from a guy out of Sealy, TX. It sat for the past 5 years and I finally got him to sell it to me... well trade actually. I traded him for some guns, so no cash out of my pocket. We both left with smiles on our faces, so it was a good trade. Of course, I got my dad and my boys involved with the transaction.

Plans:
Leave the Patina & Olive Drab paint (Polish it up & rust repair/prevention)
Replace broken glass
Replace window seals
Powdercoat Trim, Grille & bumpers Metallic Bronze
LED headlights

Modern seats with Rustic Interior (Saddle Brown Leather)
AutoMeter "American Muscle" Gauges

S10 Frame Swap
Airbagged
Little Larry's "Fourplay" Valve Unit.
22" Rear Wheels, 20" Front
87 Suburban Gas Tank (25 Gallon)
Duramax Swap/LS Swap - Still Undecided, although I am leaning towards LS due to money/time & ease of swap...
