Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
 

Thanks guys I appreciate it. I'll keep at it to get this bad boy together a little quicker. My last piece is on its way from Scott's.
Should I put my drive train in while the frame is out? Set the engine trans, drive shaft and exhaust? What do you think? What would you do?

Looking good Juan...you definitely changed directions with this:D.....looking forward to seeing it rolling again!!!....JMHO, I would go ahead and put the drivetrain and exhaust in now...how about the fuel and brake lines too...easier accessibility:D

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
 

That sounds like a good idea. I'm sure I'll at least get most of that list installed. Thanks

Juan
I would drop the motor and tranny in place and do your drive line and exhaust it will make it alot easier for you and you will be able to see all and how it will all look

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
 

Just curious why the 4-link is inside the frame rails?
Running a super wide wheel/tire combo?

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
 

Well a couple of reasons. The way I plan on running my exhaust will go right through the frame about a foot before the frame kicks up in the rear.
I would like to at some point go with a wider tire wheel combo in te rear. I am sure it won't be a 14 incher but with the exhaust going back there every inch counts.
I also spoke with several guys and fabricators here in town. They said they like the links inside the frame for ride quality.
That's why I went with an in the frame set up.

Juan...I think by the time you add the body back, it'll lay frame on its own:lol: looks great buddy!

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
 

Thanks guys. Yea I'm done till the body gets added on. I'll have to do some adjusting of the rear end to center the wheel.
Well it's off to work I go.
