A family Suburban for a young growing family that needs more that a regular Station Wagon.  Added features: Custom exterior trim and a Tailgate, Chrome Wheels, Lowered suspension, Dual Exhaust for the make believe high output 327 engine.  Notice the aluminum high-rise intake and air cleaner.  Plug wires are there if you can find them.

Looks great, I love the idea. I also love that you did the trim around the side windows, I have seem several of these that the trim is missing, it looks unfinished without it. Fantastic build.

The trim is very faint on the body and is easily missed. I think the 1:1 Suburban would have been a thin rubber gasket around the windows. Since I wanted this to look like a more upscale trim I went ahead and used foil around the side windows since I thought it looked nicer.  Thank you for your interest.

Thank you all for looking. The thing I enjoyed most was changing the "Barn Doors" to a "Tailgate" type arrangement.

Thank you JT. Glad you enjoyed it. This is the way I would have built one back then if that was what I needed for the Family.
