just wondering

[protechk5]

i think that it is amazing how old the suburban is, that being said who has the oldest one on here? does anyone have a 1936????

I have a Hot Wheels 36 burb....does that count

36? i thought they started in 1935?

I love those commericals with the old burbs, or the "Legend of the Suburban" mailers they were sending out for a while.

Suburbans rule!

Production of the suburban did start in 1935, but the first advertised year was 1936.

 

[protechk5]

what was the first year that had 4x4?

 

[Muddytazz]

Late 1890's if memory serves me.

I'm guessing NAPCO started converting them in the early to mid 50's.

NAPCO started in July/August of 1954

Actual GM production run date is unknown from a few sites I looked at doing a search.
