pflaming Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) While the suburban is not rare, it is scarce. A thread of suburban pictures would be interesting. Before and after pics welcomed. I'm rebuilding this one about 80% to driver stage Edited October 1, 2017 by pflaming Put pic back in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Coatney Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 When did they stop calling them suburbans? When they were annexed to the city. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pflaming Posted June 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 No Don, those were suburbs! Suburbans were the citizenry and were most often called suburbanites or ______ trash or other side of the tracks, or those folk across the river, etc., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TodFitch Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 When did they stop calling them suburbans? I can't find the reference now, but I recall seeing something that indicated that 1963 was the last year they were called suburbans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
