New guy from Tx
« on: January 08, 2016, 06:00:36 pm »
New guy here from temple tx area, Trying to lay my hands on a 90 3/4 ton 4wd suburban 350/th400/3.73 gears and factory posi. I was hoping for a texas truck but this one is from Tenn. hence the little bit of rust.








these are pics the guy sent me the truck is several hours away so I needed to see the pics before I drove all that way to see it.
