Hi Joe...

>First off, I didn't know there WERE any military suburbans!

True. I built this one from M1009 and M1008 parts. It has the right
engine and suspension if GM had built one. GM now makes the CUCV II
(and III I think) which is the Suburban or pickup, but in the original
series CUCVs were only Blazers or pickups. I needed more room than a
M1009 offers, and wanted a closed body so a pickup was out. I
gathered all the parts from M1008s and M1009s and am building up this
Suburban. Good catch on your part!

Thank you for all your information on getting this truck home! I
truly appreciate your time and insight and will use it.
