The lifted Suburban story got me thinking. The original concept of that vehicle was an enclosed work truck. I owned a few of the 70s models and an 81 HD 35. The three railways I worked for and around had them, some in high-rail configuration.
They were handy, you could lock valuables out of sight and access them easier than a pick-up truck, available with barn doors or a tail gate.
The last one I looked at had low profile 22" tires, a living room on wheels all for the low price of $80,000 plus tax.
Other vehicles that come to mind on my bimbo'd list are the Ford Bronco and Chev CK Blazer/GMC Jimmy.
The Ford Thunderbird went from a sports car to a land yacht.
In 2008 everyone was saying the same thing about the North American auto manufactures.
"Quit making vehicles people don't want".
They brighten up for a while, the economy recovers a little, and they go right back at it, with their heads where?
What was your favorite car, SUV or truck that got the Bimbo treatment?
