 When it comes to starting a project from scratch, it doesn’t get more blank than Eric’s 1957 Chevrolet Suburban. When Eric found the Suburban, it was just a shell—no engine, transmission, glass, or even a chassis.  The first thing he did was have a friend build a custom chassis out of heat-formed box tubing. On top of that solid foundation, he installed an air suspension and disc brake...
