Re: My '62 GMC Suburban is on it way !!
Overall, the body is pretty solid ... it does have some rust issues...but according to Bill, the floors/rockers are solid !!

Well, first all the plans are to get the ENTIRE FAMILY involved in this one. Looks like the first thing is to buy a couple of jugs of CLR and give it a nice bath, inside and out. Immediate plans are to round up a full set of seats, and get it running with a 2000 4.3 vortec/700R4 I have laying around. This will make it driveable, and of course easy to move around while I work on the body. Future major plans will include a '63 C-20 frame swap (which I have already), a more suitable ENGINE and possibly a double-hump dash conversion ...

Re: My '62 GMC Suburban is on it way !!
When I got home from work yesterday, I started by working on hatch hinges.
They are a little stiff, so a good soaking is in order..... - - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - Looks like these bolts have never been off, the threads are nice and clean... - ![]() - ![]()

Re: My '62 GMC Suburban is on it way !!
This rear area is in good shape ... a little flaky paint, and surface rust ...
- ![]() - ![]() - First soak down with WD ... I have WD in gallon form at the shop I will use later... - ![]() - Now, needed to figure out why gate would open. Bill thought it was a rod issue... ![]() - But after removing seat, and opening inspection cover... - ![]() - Quickly realized, it was just 'locked' .... - ![]() - Hard to tell in pic, but in 'lock', the rod pass thru plate, rather than pushin on it... - ![]() - ![]() - Wow, what a nice seat frame ... ![]() - ![]() - ![]()
