I found this info on a Wikipidia site. Has anyone ever seen or heard of these?

1955 - 1959 - "Task Force"
Production 1955-1959
Body style(s) 2-door wagon
Layout FR layout
Engine(s) 265 cu in V8
283 cu in V8
Engines included I-6 and the small block V-8s. Chevrolet used its 265 V-8 engine, later evolving it to a 283-cubic-inch version. GMC based their V-8 on a Pontiac design. Standard Suburban model numbers continued from the previous series, but the introduction of four-wheel-drive models in 1957 added the numbers "3156" for 4WD Suburbans with panel doors, and "3166" for 4WD Suburbans with tailgates.

The numbers on the side badges will be the same as the 3100 pickup. The numbers listed are the actual model numbers, 3106 being the panel door body, 3116 is tailgate/liftgate, 3156 and 3166 are the 4x4 versions fo 3106 and 3116 respectively.
