man that looks good! i shouldve went that route with mine..wish you could leave it raw just to show how nice they look original.

im really digging that push button start...have you tried it out yet?

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

haha i know right. yah, i bumped it over but didn't start it up because i have my hood sitting behind my burb, and dont want two black spots on my hood lol. but it woorks good.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

finished grinding down the plate that i cut out to box my lower arms in with, and picked this up for $10 to replace the one in my burb, and yes i know it is for a 67-68 gmc and it is in better shape than mine minus the part where the hood pin thing goes in the center but i will remove that from mine and install it on that one, will probably also gut the handle and move it over or use part of the one from the one it is replacing so that it is not offset

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

finished installing the pb panhard bar:metal:, just need to adjust it. also removed the rear lower bag mount and cut out the cross bar that i had put in it that wasnt strong enough and was bent. will be replacing that with some dom tubing.

it must be a pain to jack up somthin this low

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

lol. if the suspension is aired up it isnt a problem, but this time it was because my dads little compressor took a dump, and it was sitting on the ground. good thing i have no floor in the back haha. but still was a pain in the a$$, and took forever. had to use 2 bottle jacks and some 2x4's just to get it high enough to get the floor jack under it from the side as i couldnt get to the back of it either.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

dayum!

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

hahaha thats what i said when the compressor took a dump. guess i need to invest in a good portable one or something for now lol.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

:lol:

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

try jacking the truck up when its dumped, with flat tires, and in the grass! talk about a pita!!

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

haha no thanks, but at least you can get to the back lol.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

ño offense at all but this is one reason why i am glad my six seven isnt lowered.....:lol: all though i might end up lowering it a little.....time will tell.....

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

haha its ok, the only reason why i had such a hard time is because i couldnt get to the back lol.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

adjusted the pb panhard bar and threw a quick crappy paint job on my glove box door will redo it better later. and took a couple of pics of the clearance of the pb bar and brackets just perfect lol. and also took a pic of the part of the rear brake line that i can see from underneath.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

haha thanks, it looks cleaner in that pic than it really is, i need to do the bodywotk to the center section but that will not be happening right now. will save that project for late.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

do you already have the a/c stuff for inside the dash? (center vent and other vent)

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

nope, what you see is what i got, other than one vent ball and part of the center vent(the directional piece), why you got some stuff laying around i can have lol??

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

a driver side peice it is blue and it is the outer peice that screws in the dash....

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

HAAAAA not a problem at my house my burb is "overbodydropped" meaning my frame is still 3-4" off the ground when flat out down,,,,just roll the jack (lo pro jack, of course) between the wheel well and tire,,,jack it up *piece a toast*

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

no pics yet, but i finished welding and boxing up the lower a arms, need to do some grinding and some wire wheeling, and drill a couple holes for the bags, then i can paint them and start putting them together. sure hope i can get the ball joints out of my other a arms without damaging them.
