Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

i guess that is the price you pay when you mdo bags the inner part of the tire gets rubbed down first?

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

did you buy new stock lines?

and what hood hinges you gonna use? i need to cut mine, i would really love to get some porterbuilt hinges but its a little out of my range :)

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

wow the dash looks great!

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

i bought the stuff from autoslow lol. the poly armor(sp) stuff, 2-60" pieces and 1-40" piece and 2-tube unions was cheaper han buying a new one and easier to install it that way as well. was also able to get the end where i needed it to with the extra length i added to it. dont know exactly on the hinges yet, i want the porterbuilt ones as well but we will see, would deffinatly have to save for them though.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

thanks, still far from done though

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

added some more black paint to the back of the dash. and took another pic

so am i! you can drive yours correct ? i cant! so you are alot farther than me but i will be gaining on you soon i have been able to get some parts from some of these guys on the site:metal:

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

the bck of my dash looks like you sandblasted a peice of metal in some spots and then left it for a day so its not horrible got to fix it right away but it is a little rusty and it still wears the original blue back there to:lol:

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

it runs but i cant drive it right now, cant get it out of the driveway lol. that and the front lights dont work as i have the headlight harness pulled out, and im still waitng for my tags in the mail:lol:

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

haha, my whole dash is gonna bolt in as well so i dont have to weld it, and can remove it later if need be. the back of this one was kind of like yours but mostly surface rust so i wire wheeled what i could get of it, then proceeded with the rust converter and paint. good luck on yours

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

mine i dont know what i will do

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

oh ok, well whatever you do good luck

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

:lol:

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

traded the hood hinges off of my truck that i will no longer be able to use for a passanger side 68 fender that has already had the marker hole welded up, its pretty strait and not rusty but does need a little work.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

haha nah its not ready yet lol. still need to figure out how i wanna attach it accross the top under the windshield. and i need to finish drilling holes for a few things and then do the bodywork to it, then it can be put in, also need to clean up the back side of the fire wall under behind the dash and paint it as well.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

oh wow your truck , i mean burb will be down for awhile

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

haha nah, it still runs lol

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

oh so you plan on drivin with no dash at all?

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

a thought came to mind ..... hey honey just jiggle that gob of wires...:haha:

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

hahaa no dont plan on driving it like that, but if for some reason i had to drive it, it doesnt need to be their to run lol. also will be cleaning up or replacing/modifying the harness with a newer ('70) fuse block and some connectors to hook up stock style headlight/wiper switches again.
