I would like to introduce everyone to the latest addition to our family. It is a 71 BB GMC Suburban!! Should be here on Sunday so I will have more pictures then. I am going to use it for a tow vehicle for now and probably put a 71/72 Chevy front clip on it. But for now it will stay as is only I will do the rust repairs that it needs.

I hope there isn't any sibling rivelry between it and it's older cousin... LOL WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

Congrats Wes! What'd it weigh at birth?

1969 GMC · 04-29-2004, 10:32 PM

2 suggestions:

1). Keep it GMC!!!

2). Ditch those gay hubcaps.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 04-29-2004, 11:17 PM

I think it weighed about 4,000 lbs at birth... LOL It will stay GMC for now, but I lean toward the chevy front ends. I kinda like those hubcaps... NOTTTT!!! I have some original GMC hub caps here I will try on for size to see how they look. Eventually it will get mags though.. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

Blue Beard, I don't know if it was a "C" section delivery.. Is that like the "C" notch kit?? They wouldn't let me near it because I had a grinder in one hand and an impact wrench in the other... LOL I tried to tell them I was just goint to improve it's looks..LOL
spencra, I have a couple of trucks up for adoption here... The food (gas) bill is getting too large.... and that's not even taking into consideration how much room they take up..LOL
