Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
 

rob that thing looks awesome! i love when these trucks have the oe look with a hint of the visual modern features and all of the internal modern features!

Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
 

Thanks Mike. Do you plan on doing the Power Tour this year?

Thanks. Like I said, you can't go wrong with any of the LS motors.

Thanks! I hope my vision for the truck continues to come together.

Lookin good man can't wait to be at that stage on mine

Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
 

Thanks! You're almost there and I'm looking forward to seeing it in person, :).

I ordered my Entropy radiator setup today and my Speartech harness. The motor and tranny should be making some serious progress in the next couple of weeks....:D.

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Wow! Amazing!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Great progress! I like the machined tailgate trim piece. That looks really good! Maybe you already said, but are you polishing, anodizing, or painting it? Either way it looks really cool! I assume it cost some bucks to fab that puppy. I know how expensive it is to manufacture in America. ;):ito:

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

man i hope you land that Tyson job i sure want to see your rigs

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Rob - way too many details to take in all at once.

I went back and reviewed the whole thread yesterday and didn't get a chance to post before I had to get back to work.

Fantastic job on this project!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Thanks Newtz.

I'm going to polish it and then paint the inside black to match the trim. The price was not bad at all. Very close to the cost of buying an aftermarket replacement....Give them a call, I'm sure they will take care of you also.

That makes 2 of us, :D.

Thanks! Hard to believe this thread is almost 5 years old! The 2 years in NM slowed me down somewhat, but I'm trying to make up for lost time, :).

My dream is coming true! In your garage...:lol: Looking really really good, I hope you take it to lots of shows when you're done so I might get a chance to see it. Or how about you just sell it to me and I'll convince mama she needs a blown superburb instead of her Tahoe!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Thanks for the props! I'm currently interviewing with Tyson, so you might get to see it sooner than you think....:D. Tell her it's got seat warmers for those cold NW Arkansas mornings, :metal:.

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Leevon, he is trying to get a job at Tysons in Springdale....so we might get to see his rigs

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

wow we posted that at the same time

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Some more parts showed up yesterday....:).

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

that looks great! you wont have any problems with the florida heat now!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

I don't think that fits very good in the 69.... We should do a test run on a oh I don't know...... A 68 burb? What ya think?

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

I hope your right.

I doubt that it will keep that big block cool....:lol:.

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Where did the dimple-died bracket come from? I just bought a set of dimple dies ;)

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

did you make that bracket frizzle? i like it...i may have to get one. looks a lot cooler than regular radiator clamps

price?

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

It's really nice piece. I got it from a boardmember:

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

Didn't mean to imply that I made it ...just admiring all the dimple die work I see these days :) Some friends asked me "what are you going to make with them?" My answer was "whatever I want!"

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

One of the top burb builds I've ever seen!

Gonna be awesome!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

are there any rubbing issues assoc. with the radiator with the custom cover?

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
 

I'm glad you got them. I need some more stuff made for the farm truck, ;).


Thanks Rick. I've been following alon on your build also. It's cool to see you driving and enjoying it as you continue to finish it up. Looking forward to seeing the final version.

These work perfect with the factory HD radiators.
