That red knee-knocker Carryall is one handsome truck. Imagine one like that outfitted with the matching red interior. WOW! ..that's gotta be way up there on the rarity scale.

The '63 seat design is my favorite, and those red ones are just plain awesome!

Re: 1963 Salesman's Suburban Brochure

The white insert that continues from the door panel. Has anyone seen a Suburban with that option?

Re: 1963 Salesman's Suburban Brochure

It just doesn't seem like there are as many pristine 'Burbs as their are trucks. I wonder why that is??? One would think that trucks were abused more than the burbs would have been. Is it because there were so few of them made compared to the trucks?

I think they all came that way. That is, if you had white door panels, then you got white rear cargo panels too. Is that what you're asking?

Here's mine.

Definitely a numbers thing. Fewer made so fewer survive.

Always a great reference, Thank You.

Wouldn't take much to install additional arm rests in the rear.

The problem with rear arm rests is that when you take the seat out, the arm rests would still be there, which could interfere with boxes or your cargo.
And depending on where they are located, it could make even removing the seat more awkward.

I've got a '61, and the rear seat is in and out at least once a month so I can haul all my gear for the NE Georgia Swap Meet, but I also pull it out to move furniture, etc.
