Seeking help in evaluating "Burb for sale
I'm looking at buying an early 60's GMC Suburban and have found one near Austin TX. Seems like it has exceptional sheet metal; missing the original engine/tranny (400/700 in place). If this ends up in my garage I hope to convert it back to the V6; my FIL had one that he drove for nearly 500K miles before New England salt broke it apart. Any suggestions on finding assistance with an in-person evaluation of this truck? I'm 1700 miles away. I'm also not the first in line, but for the other two ahead of me it's a money issue and sometimes those problems don't go away; hope to know in a week or so if I have the option to buy. I'm willing to pay for the help, but finding someone who knows what to look for can be a challenge. Thanks!
Brad
