Minnesnowta newb
Good Day All! My name is Tim and i'm from MN. Just this past weekend, myself and 2 others made a 2400 mile road trip to pick up my 1957 Chevy Suburban. It looks rough in the pictures, but up close it really nice compared to what i'd find here in MN.

Re: Minnesnowta newb
I have found a picture of a 1957 GMC suburban, this will give you guys kinda the idea of what I want my beast to look like.
