    Where do I find a full set of door cards/panels?

    I'm having a heck of a time finding a source for a full set of door panels for my suburban. I remember it being hard when I had my '84 C30 3+3, but jeez. Where do I find rear full manual cards for a '78 'burb?

    New guy with a '78 'burb

    Rebuild or Swap?

    Any LS variant swap is pretty slick. I didn't want to do anything like that for a long time. Currently putting a 6.0L in a '81 Camaro. My '78 'burb will eventually get a LS variant. Tuning, parts, driveability, are all excellent. LS variants are now considered "vintage", too. It was introduced...
