valkomna. I spent some time in Malmo ( back before they built the bridge, and you had to take the ferry for a beer..!).
What is the history of GM in Sweden? Did they build / sell chevy trucks there, or are they all imports from the US ?? I dont remember seeing any, only Volvo, Saab and VW !!

GM was rather big in EU erlier 50 - 70 ish, the are actully a rather big community around US cars over here with big car meeting etc, my truck started at Swedish road administration as a "company car" between 1982-2006 so in fairly nice condition, also fitted with Saab 900 seat from start (fitted in sweden by dealer) so its a bit fun vehicle

Welcome, from Houston, Texas! My family's had 5 square body Burbs, the '79, '84 and '90 were the ones we used the most. All 3 had buckets, the '84 didn't come with em but we added them after we got it. Used to do a LOT of road trips to swap meets, in DFW area and other places in north and central Texas. They are wonderful and versatile vehicles, so much so that in August 1986, Texas Monthly magazine named the Suburban "the National Car of Texas".
