Thanks guys, appreciate the support.:metal:

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

I'm looking for a nice set of front and rear 72 door panels with stainless trim if any one has any. Thanks in advance!

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

I got the 3rd brake light/cargo light mounted! Just like the factory did it :D.

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

Wasn't sure I would like that, but the visual has me reconsidering. Dang it anyway, another item on the list of possibilities.

Nicely Done Rob..

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

Could you get a cargo light on a suburban or is that "custom"?

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

Thanks Bro!

I saw suburban when I was in NM that had on installed and it was on the SPID. I'm guessing it was a dealer add on...

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

Still working on the tune, but we did get the floor done in the bathroom.

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

Finally got the door alignment close. I had bought 2 new door mechanisms (AMD), but they were junk. So I returned them and bought a set of NOS ones from boardmember 72MIKE. I also installed the front fenders just to see how everything lines up. I still have to pull them off one more time to do a couple more things, but they are close considering this is the first time they've been on in 9 years.....:). It almost looks like a truck now....:lol:.

One more picture!

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

Nice R0b! :metal:

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

The Burb is looking very good. The bathroom in the shop is a great idea too. Nice floor going in there.

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

Nice touch with that cargo lamp. It'd be cool to install a back up camera hidden at the bottom of it. That would give a nice view compared to one at the license plate height. That is a nice bathroom floor!

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

Thanks Bill!

Thanks AD. I probably won't ever build another shop, so I wanted to do it right, :D.

Hadn't thought about a backup camera..:gi:..any suggestions on one to install?

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

My plumber installed the sink, toilet, sink and show yesterday, so the bathroom is officially done! So other than installing an 80 gallon air compressor and rearranging some stuff, operation "finish shop" is done, :metal:.

Put in a bed and your all set.

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

I have a futon.....and a fridge.....;).....:lol:

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

I am really interested in your paint scheme for my 72 4x4. Are you going to use any trim or will you leave it as is?

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

I have all new custom trim to install.

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

I went back through you're thread and saw the original build sheet. I'll be calling Mar-K. And thanks for putting those pics up, looks absolutely amazing. Thank you.

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

No problem!


****
I got the front fenders test fitted as well as putting my grill together (couldn't believe how much work that turned out to be....:waah:). I also, plumbed the heat exchanger for the S/C as well as changing the oil and coupler in the front snout. Nothing major, but progress none the less! Pictures for all you visual types, :lol:!

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

Very nice. Looks about there. What else is left?

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

Truck looks great. I like the look without the trim as well.

Can you tell us more about what tail light you used and what you did to make them look the way they do?

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

ALOT!!!!! Waiting on some emblems, finish cleaning up the wiring under the hood, install the hood, grille, bumper, install the glass and mechanisms in all the doors, speakers, carpet, door panels, headliner, install the seats, install all of the outside trim....


They are factory truck tail lights. Basically, I cut the bed ends off a pickup truck and molded them into the back of the suburban.

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

Just picked up some Cheyenne door panels and inserts from a boardmember. I will need to paint them matte black. Not sure if I will redo the wood grain on the aluminum inserts or leave as is. I think they are pretty rare and not sure I have seen any like them before. Now all I need to find is the aluminum piece that goes on the glovebox door...
