1973 Chevrolet Suburban Cheyenne Super review from North America
"Its built like a tank which has made it last so long"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the suburban, it still currently has the original 350 engine in it, with a turbo 350 and a gm 12-bolt in the rear, it has original a/c installed and still works other than the r-134a conversion.
General comments?
It is one of the greatest trucks ever built on the face of the planet, it still runs really good and burns a minimal amount of oil for such an old engine, driving it is a pleasure even though it doesn't have the turning radius of a new suburban which make is kinda tough to get into parking spaces, it also doesn't have the horsepower of a new suburban, but it will still cruise down the freeway at 70-75 easily.
