So I did some rough sketching of my ideas for a 90's model Suburban. Please note this is not daydreaming, I will be building this or something similar in the not too distant future, so please provide your ideas and feedback to improve the design.
The highlight is a chopped top over the rear cargo area with a grafted in aluminum faux bedcover. The majority of the bedcover would be permanently attached, with a smaller hatch opening in the rear portion. The bedcover would be bare aluminum to give the appearance of an Avalanche with cover.
Supporting this modification would be some taper worked into the existing roof, probably be grafting in a tapering roof section (cut a front roof panel near windshield turned backwards). Additionally replacing the rear cargo doors with a step side tailgate, and plan tapering the sides of the suburban to meet up with the narrower tailgate. The bedcover and bumper would taper to match.
Other modifications would be a full belly pan, side steps/belly pan/skids, aluminum front and rear bumpers, faux aerodynamic grill guard, conveyor belt tire spats/mudflaps, etcetera.
