That's a flashback, two of my square body Burbs had blue interior; the '84 had a tailgate and the '90 had barn doors.It's already been mentioned the Suburban has an "8' bed" which gave me a chuckle because it's an accurate statement, I just never considered it a bed - even when I took my old blue '94 from TX to FL to buy a chopper, left the 3rd row seat out, folded the 2nd row down and put a thick comforter and pillows back there so I could pull over and sleep.
Many, many times I've used a Suburban as a truck - hauling around pinball machines and old arcade games. I would slide a 4x8 sheet of MDF in there to make it easier. A word of caution; be super-super careful with the latches that hold the fold-down panels in place on the 2nd row seat. When you slide a sheet of plywood/mdf/whatever in there, if you don't lift it over those latches, you'll break them right off.
You'd never be able to cart cool stuff like this around with a Tahoe! (this was my "just use a sheet of cardboard" method, before I upgraded to the MDF)

I do still mess around with the arcade stuff, just not as much as I used to. It's a time, money, and space thing.. still have 3 pins that are my all-time favorites (Pin*Bot, Solar Fire, Firepower), and 1 vid (Phoenix) at this time. I've had those pins about 20 years now, downsized bigtime from a much larger collection.That's a flashback, two of my square body Burbs had blue interior; the '84 had a tailgate and the '90 had barn doors.
You still hunting arcade or pinball machines? I have a pinball machine from the '80s that might be looking for a new home.
These are not great pix cause done in a dark shop building. But it's a Skyhawk pinball machine that we got through the parts store business back in the early 80s; been in the backroom till last week.I do still mess around with the arcade stuff, just not as much as I used to.

Interesting! That's a Fischer Skyhawk from 1977, it's a home model (non-commercial, doesn't take coins to play) that apparently was their only pinball offering though there are mentions of a slightly different version of the same game, with only 2 pop bumpers instead of 3 and some minor differences in the artwork. Yours having the 3 pop bumpers I guess makes it the Skyhawk II. Fischer / Questor apparently was in the pool table business and decided they'd offer a home model pin.These are not great pix cause done in a dark shop building.
