    So I saw this thing at an ag auction. The scrappers were out in full force. So I had to save it. I DONT NEED ANOTHER PROJECT. But, you know how it goes. The thing has trailing arms under it. That stock? Its a 61.

    I'd keep it as a parts trailer, but for fun find a nose that looked like it smashed into a wall at 60MPH just to turn heads as you drive along.

    Nice save! It does make for a nifty trailer. How does it pull?

    I say it deserves to be a Suburban again. Stick it on a pickup frame and get a front end. Looks really straight, and the glass looks nice

    I vote for the camper idea. That would be pretty cool. Might have to figure out how to lighten it up alittle though. Put in a wrap around couch, a t.v and a small kitchen. Maybe a grill built into one of the front doors so you can use it when you open the door.
