Re: 1950 suburban bagged
Welcome...
Nice looking Suburban. Nice to see another join the group, as we have about 4 different people building them and we are all at different points in our builds and I think that we are also going in 4 different directions on the end product. Keep the pics coming. Marc

Looks. Killer man. Any plans for that 54 grill? I'd love one for my 54.

Re: 1950 suburban bagged
Welcome and thank you for showing your Suburban build. Very cool! Doing that in a year and a half is pretty fast.

Re: 1950 suburban bagged
Nice ride, and it's always good to see families participating in the build. Makes it a lot more pleasant when the woman is on your side.

Re: 1950 suburban bagged
I,ve been looking at the diffent burban builds and i see some questions about fuel tanks for ls swaps. I used a 96 s-10 blazer tank because they are steel and a 2000 s-10 blazer fuel pump it feeds the motor just fine

Timely information on the fuel tank as I've been thinking through mine as well. Believe Pokerpossum is using a Blazer or S10 tank as well. |

Re: 1950 suburban bagged
