Clearly it is based at the Chevrolet Suburban, but I guess this is a european job.

I've seen these vehicles featured in magazines before...usually they're built on a Chevy Suburban chassis; sometimes widened as well as lengthened.  The primary customers are Arab oil sheiks in Saudi Arabia, etc.  This model is unusual in the fact that it is a cabriolet.  Usually, the Suburban is converted into a sedan configuration and armor plated to the hilt.

I'm guessing either Armbruster-Stageway or Hess and Eisenhardt did the work, but I don't know for sure.  I guess I'll go with Hess and Eisenhardt.

Not bad at all.  In fact, I'd say it's spot on excellent. :)

Dunno...I'd be the King of Idaho were I to have this in/on top of my garage.

But I guess that proves your point.
