'89 Crew Cab body to '90 Suburban frame?
Turns out that getting a bare cab w title will be a pain to register in commiefornia.Probably gonna re-think plan. Probably just use the C2500 arizona truck and put the other suburban stuff on it. Too many hoops and obstacles with ca dmv. Tim- 89 Crewzer

'89 Crew Cab body to '90 Suburban frame?
