We got the telescoping tube assembled. we also stripped the interior and masked off dash, headliner and passenger side doors. Then we started cutting out the drivers side floor. |
Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Really enjoying this conversion build Dale.
I do find your thread is one of those that I go to every time anyone posts in it. I take it that roller system has quite a tight tolerance with minimal wriggling room. Look forward to the next instalment. |

We had to make the opening in the floor a little wider. We also had to lower the anti lock brake controller, brake lines, fuel lines and wiring. Then we started making the new floor. We'll do it in two sections so we started at the back. |
Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Morning Dale.
Just noticed the photoshop pic below on a different forum. Made me smile. [img]http://img.retro-rides.org/i/v/automatik/8e799d568883.jpg[img/] Hope all is good with you and your gang. PS. Failed to copy and paste. Will save and upload to my photos later. |

Any update on this

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Hi all, Sarah here.
I'm beginning to feel like I'm the bearer of bad news. As some of you know, or may have suspected, Dale has become very, very ill. He is not going to get better, and is in the last bit of his life. The 66 sub project as therefore come to an end, and I will keep the 65 that you see in his profile. I will update this thread with his obituary when the time comes. Thank you all for everything. He never had a specific goal to be an inspiration, but I know that he was and is to many, myself included. |
Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
So sorry to hear this and yes, he is an inspiration for me. His ideas and fabrication skills are outstanding. Thank you for keeping us posted. Prayers for you all.

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Hi Sarah and the rest of your family.
I am really sorry to hear the news and like many others on here have looked both up to Dale, and also at him for inspiration when getting on with our own builds and lives. I am at a loss for words on what else to say, which is a rare thing. But know that your family and Dale will be in many of our prayers and thoughts as we go about our daily lives. A guy like him makes the world a better place for many of us. Fondest regards to Dale from England Rian |
Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Hi Sarah
For some things there are no words but as Rian has said above, you will all be in our thoughts and prayers |
Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Hi Sarah as both Rian and Ian have both said Dale is inspirational to many guys that read his thread . I myself working in the adaptation industry for disabled people have many a time mentioned Dale’s build to some of my younger customers that find themselves in a wheelchair . How you can build things and be amazing even from a chair . I am sorry to here the news . He will always be an inspiration to many .

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Sarah
There are no words to say to diminish the sadness in your and Dale's world. I was totally unaware of his challenge until a short while back. He proved that if you say you can, you can. He did as he chose. I wish the best for both of you. Respectfully Kim |

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Ohhhh Sarah, Abby and Bonnie, I am so sorry for your loss.
That was no age to be lost to all of us. Please feel comforted that there is a whole gang of big hairy men out there who feel for you and will miss Dale's build, mentorship, sense of humour, perspective and true grit on here. I do hope that you find comfort in knowing he was loved on here by many and that we all stand by you as a family. Having read his obituary, I could see a continuation of a pragmatic, sensible man and family. Celebrate his life, always. RIP Dale. |
