Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
My god i have got to buy me a suburban, i have always wanted one and i planned on my next project after my 65 was to dust off the 67 and slap it back together than start on my 31 ford but i might have to find me a burb first.

My '66 project. My dream is to have it driveable by spring, but reality is probably something more like 'sometime this decade'. I'm a complete newb to this kind of work, so it will be slow going, lots of mistakes, etc.
I have wanted a suburban forever, just never thought I would be lucky enough to find one I could afford! This, too, started its life as a school bus, and owes many thanks to that life for the minimal Missouri rust! |

Love the Burbs...Were you lucky enough to get seats with it? i'm still looking for factory rear seats for the other former bus listed above. For the time being i'm thinging about only having a front seat in it. Fortunatly mine still has the origional wood floor and rubber mat with no damage so it looks kinda cool with enough room in the back to park a mini cooper lol.

I'm wanting me a 4x4 burb, prefer 64-66. I've had several 62-66 trucks but I'm thinking Burb now.

We're not going to 4x this one, actually going to drop it a bit (talking to CPP about their Grand Slam kit). We got a built 700R4 for it and will be picking up a nice little 468 for it next month ;) |

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
I just look at these bad boys and my heart just screams out......GET A BURB...
I have a '59 Apache project that I love....on the back burner...but I remember...when I was just a pup...13 or 14 years old, growing up on a homestead in a remote hanging valley in the interior of Alaska..in 1972. My dad traded in our '66 Chev Suburban...bone stock, 292 with an automatic, all the seats and in great shape (:waah:)on a '63 Coupe De Ville so my Mother would have a nice car to drive. Pretty quick, I guess Dad realized he missed the Carry-All and he came home one day driving a '58 GMC Suburban...(not sure on which is a Burb & which is a Carry-All)...in decent shape for the year...(in fabulous shape for today). It was dark..(Brick) red with one of the barn doors being yellow....and maybe a fender. Well, that became Dads daily driver and our hunting & fishing rig from then on. It only had one rear seat...and we took it out and put it in the shed so that when we were on a huntin trip, we could throw a pad in the back and camp out of it. That rig hauled thousands of pounds of Caribou and Moose meat (and Salmon and Halibut) home to the freezer over the next years. I would give anything for a chance to own that truck. Last we saw of it was, after a mechanical failure of some sort....Dad left it in White Horse or Dawson Creek on his last trip Outside...bought a cheep runner and drove the rest of the way to Oregon. I wish I had a chance. |

brought this one home a few weeks ago. cleaned about 600 lbs of junk out of it. found the latches for the sliding rear windows while doing it. still has the original front seat.
|
Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
awesome score! even has the custom trim on the side did you find the parts for the doors?
|
Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
i was going thru some of my junk and found a pair of lift arms for the hatch. still kinda looking for a single support arm for the liftgate but other projects have to come first.

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures
Rocktonka- thats a good looking burb, looks solid too. must be nice to live where the iron mites dont attack your truck. your trim looks like stainless ,I think the trim on mine is aluminum. maybe different years? gmc verses chevy?
found the pointed piece for $16 and fender moulding for $21 in the truck shop catalog. |
