I was brought home from the hospital in an identical suburban. Would have been 4 years old then

Didn’t get better than those trucks

Tested the 4x4 works great . I also went threw the paperwork with the truck. The original owner had OCD worse than me . He kept everything like the two recalls on the truck they are in a folder in plastic sleeves real cool I have done that before but he even kept the envelope it was mailed in.

also every piece of paper from the bill of sale to delivery papers mounted in a display frame even the loan papers . Truck was $13,597.00 before tax ... someone asked in another thread how much I paid . $97 less than the price in 85

That’s the type of guy you want to buy a truck from. That literature is invaluable

How do you feel about old El Caminos? I’ve got a ‘69 SS 396 4spd in mid restoration. Pic is of the day it came home, and the freshly rebuilt 396.

4 speed and big block 396? Only a communist wouldn’t like that and who cares what they feel.

I like them almost as much as my 66SS. I had a 70 camino light blue metallic in high school.
