good looking on that badge. I have also see the suburban in Houston with the new front end on it and once again it was a family driving it. Not your typical custom vehicle driver look.

on that two door photo, that rear window just doesn't look right, none of the gm stuff goes like that. I photo shopped a suburban to a 2-door tahoe a while back, not the bestn hell not even smooth but, gave me the visual I was looking for. The rear windows on the 2door tahoes of pre-2000 were about 9inches longer than a suburban rear window. I have done all the measurements off the 98 suburban,tahoe (2door and 4-door), and the 2003 suburban and tahoe, the photo i made uses all measurements that line up with the relationship of the 89-98 2-door and the 89-99 suburban/tahoes.

Wanna hear something interesting?? They make a 400 SS in Mexico too! They look awesome. Just like the SS models from the US but in a 2 door version. Same 20'' inch wheels, front end, and lower body cladding too. Must be nice to drive a 400 cubic inch 1/2 ton.

here's the truck that was in trucking a few years ago. The guy said he started with a suburban, but that rear window has to be custom. GM has nothing that looks like that. The window always wraps up higher towards the top and back towards the plastic corner covers.

Hmm, don't know about that one
My aunt and uncle are down in Mexico at least two to three times a week (from Texas). They have a friend who owns a 400 SS and it's just a regular old Silverado with the stickers and some ground effects. It has the 5.3L, don't believe they offer the 6.0L in that one.
