I recently picked up a 1960 suburban. It sat on CList for a long time and the price finally got worth considering.
It's sort of that fine line between a restoration candidate and a parts tractor.
The major parts are there, but it needs a lot of small misc parts.
I've gone though the parts book, and here what I need to do a full restoration on it.
I'll also consider a parts tractor.
