Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

coming along nicely...you getting the bag stuff ready?

i been meaning to ask you...what did you do to cut your floor and stock tubs out? i been working on mine all week (scattered about) and i have been grinding the head of the bolts off and punching them through with a hammer and screwdriver...got a few more to go still. and i havent tried cutting the tubs out...what did you use to cut them out?

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

thanks, i try lol. no not yet, no money for that but soon hopefully lol. and i used a combination of things over time as i was removing the floor and wheel tubs. i used a grinder, a saws-all, an air cutter, and a couple of hand tools.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

a few more shots, now with the rear wheels all black. will get some more pics tomorrow of the tubs and rear frame painted up.

edit: dont mind the illegal parking lol, it was only for a couple minutes and in front of my house.

here's some Cali black and yellow plates im working on that i will be using one way or another lol. one was pretty horrible(the top half all bent up and stuff) when i got them, the other wasnt to bad. didnt take before and during pics but here they are in primer, they still need some more sanding to finish smoothing out and then i can start painting them the colors they are supposed to be. they are not going to be perfect but good enough for me lol

How did the plates turn out?

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

never finished them, damn satin black spray paint wrinkled up on them lol. so they have been sitting in a box in my room for a while. eventually i'll pull them back out and try redoing them again.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

Its coming along man ill subscribe to your thread i like what your doin already.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

man its super low for a static drop. whats the bag setup gonna be? (wondering if it would get any lower lol)

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

thanks

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

heres the set up. it was just something kind of quick, need to address a few issues with it still. yah it will lay the rear quarter panel behind the tire on the ground, but thats only cause the front is up so high.

Really looking good i really like the control arms

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

haha thanks, yah they are beefy as hell to . done up by a buddy/lowrider guy built for hoping so they should never bend. the only thing i had him do that was a little to much is stretching them an 1" 3/8's. should have only went 1" instead as i have some positive camber at that front ride height lol. and thats with almost no shims.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

perfect. i just wanted to see where the crossmembers were in relation to the driveshaft when its aired out. i really like that setup, any thought of makin them to sell? ;)


have you decided how your gonna bag the front?

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

thanks, and no never thought of it lol. still need to add some bracing to the lower bag brackets to completly get rid of trailing arm inward twist (not to much now). also have to redo the whole adjustable panhard bar issue


for the front, well i put the stock upper a arms back on in the front because of having to much positive camber, gonna shorten and cup the lowers and add 3" drop spindles with bags and that should take care of the front for a while.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

painted a few more things for my engine im building..... painted with bright red brake caliper paint

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

some cupped lower a arms im building.... welded with an arc welder by me, and not the greatest and best looking but they will work. also will probably end up shortening them 1" to help with negative camber.

edit: dont mind the obligitory frame in the background lol....
