1955 suburban

How common are 55, 56 suburbans with the lift gate style back end? Are the gates common or hard to find?

Most subs came with the clamshell gates. None of them had a full lift gate. There are a few customs that have made them full lifts.

Thats what i meant, the clamshell gates. Are they hard to find in decent shape or dime a dozen?
