Re: Show me your 55-59 Suburbans/Panels please
I want one My first vehicle was a burb. I almost bought one that was on ebay but it was a little out of my price range at the time. But after my 55 is done i will be hunting for a burb.

Re: Show me your 55-59 Suburbans/Panels please
I saw a panel/suburban this summer while on vaction...it had 4 doors on the passenger side and one door on the left(drivers). The front clip was gone but it was a 55-59 model year. What was that vehicle made for? Taxi?, tour bus?...(unfortunately did not have a camera....)
