well i have so-cal on their because i live in southern cali and im just representin it. but as to the fact that some people in oregon have it on their window is kind of dumb when they dont even live down here. but thats just my opinion.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

Lookin good! Specs/brand on those wheels? Front and rear preferably.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

You can just get a universal sending unit and make it fit. That's what most of the custom tanks come with anyhow. I like the lift on the side of the house. Wish I had the room and the $$!!

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

yah its pretty nice to have a lift on the side of the house, it makes things alot aesier. and thanks to my friend for paying for it cuz its his house i get to use it.

you know the usual: shaved door handles, license plate in the tailgate, rear roll pan, 20" black kmc rockstars, 4 or 5" cowl hood, full air ride suspension, euro headlights, tan/black and leopard print interior. full autometer gage clustor, mild 350(someday maybe a twin turbo caddy 500 or something), regeared rear end, adding a 3rd brake light, etc.:metal:

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

if you go to www.cadillacpower.com and click on the for sale link, someone there was selling a complete twin turbo package for a caddy 500 for $900.

don't know if it is still available

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

Did you build the buckets for the caddy taillights or did you buy them some place?

thanks. 20x8.5 rims w/a 255/35r20 kumho ecsta tire, 2" lowering springs in the rear w/a homemade 3" lowering block, and cut springs in the front. i like the stance to but not the ride,(hate the ride in the front, no suspension left from cutting springs too much).
