1990 Suburban V1500 - Forum Rookie

[BGBubba]

Hello All -

I'm new to gmsb.com and the proud new owner of a 1990 Suburban V1500. I found a gem in this one: no rust, almost everything but paint is original, mechanically incredible for its age, and I basically bought it from the original owner (it went through my buddy for about 1 year who painted it and put 33x12.5s on it).

I'm hoping for any and all guidance on replacing the whole dash/gauges/steering column controls, as well as potential upgrade recommendations to lift/suspension.

I know there will be more to come once this big momma arrives in my driveway next week, but I'm just trying to get started here and get involved in the community!

Nice looking Burb. That's a Texas combined registration/inspection decal. Where did the truck come from?

I'm just finishing up restoration on my '91 V-1500 GMC Burb. Acres of sheet metal and carpet. Can't wait to get it back on the road to scare as many POS FWD's as I can find.

Original owner was in Oklahoma, and a good buddy of mine bought it from him in 2021. It spent 2 years in Ft Worth until I recently had it brought to Virginia.
