Hey guys!

So I recently purchased a 1973 K20 Suburban! It has a 350/350 combo. My name is Stu right now I currently live on the Central Coast of California. A little background info on me...originally from Illinois, moved around a ton since I was 18 and ended up here for the last 4 years. I own a few vehicles 1993 Mazda Rx7 pretty rare and hard to come by these days, a 88 toyota pickup which is gutless and may be going to the junkyard shortly and now a 73 3/4 ton Chevy Burban.
picked it up for 1700 bucks on Saturday. On the 300(Roughly) mile roadtrip back it ran like a champ and still does! Also the buds of mine that went with me named it the Cobra Cat, which if anyone isnt familiar with GI Joe it stands for Crimson attack tank. Which is pretty damn fitting. She needs some work but is a very solid find for 1700 bucks, hardly any rust and runs like a top! Here are some pictures of it now! I plan on doing a restore on it slowly over the next couple years, but would like to go with a built big block.

Real nice for $1700. I paid $2400 and have a project on my hands! Not that I don't enjoy a good project.
