That looks like a good solid start.

Re: Harley Hauler '69 burban
 
nice motor you got there, did you rebuild it or just dress it up? whats the plans for the burban? looks like you got a good truck to start off with.

lowsled71 08-01-2009 09:49 PM

Re: Harley Hauler '69 burban
 
it was already .030 over and all so i just put new gaskets in it. The plan for it is to get it running then wory about the body it will be flat black with rallys painted the same color as the motor with chrome rings and no center caps kinda going with a rat rod theme

Cool suburban! Can't wait to see more pictures of your progress. While I enjoy looking at all the build threads I love seeing the Blazer and suburban ones the best.

That 66 lwb looks pretty good. I had a 64 lwb that I sold to raise the funds I needed to buy my 72 suburban.

It's a special edition package for 68 Chevy's honoring their 50th anniversary. Typically for the trucks, you start looking at th 2 tone gold/white paint job, plus some other options. I don't remember the paint code, but there are other gold & whitetrucks that are not 50th models.

That is the short version.

Re: Harley Hauler '69 burban

your 68 is most likely a 5oth annv i would take care of the paint and leave it because it looks to be in good shape
