New To Me '66 Burb
 

So I picked up this '66 Burb a few days ago. I'm more or a 67-72 Pickup guy, but I like the '60-'66 burbs better than the 67-72 one.

Anyway Fast plans are lowering hopefully with a simple airride setup and LS swap.

Has the original 283 in it. It was a 3speed column, but someone swapped a 4 speed in it and chopped the trans tunnel out so I'll have to repair that.

supposedly was an original Cali truck. It is very solid and unmolested.

Body and paint look naturally perfect.
And one of my favorite colors.

Re: New To Me '66 Burb
 

I love the color as well. Body has a little damage, but nothing that is detrimental to its overall appearance.

has anyone used the AZ Pro Performance budget air ride kit?

Re: New To Me '66 Burb
 

That looks like a nice original 'Burb and with the custom trim too.

Re: New To Me '66 Burb
 

Are you going to keep it in its natural beauty?

Re: New To Me '66 Burb
 

That's a winner! I particularly like the single color with custom trim look.

Re: New To Me '66 Burb
 

As Far as I can tell most of it is original except for the transmission & wheels

Thats the plan. Keep it as is. Like I said there is a little damage on the left rear quarter. If I decide to fix it, hopefully I can blend the paint to match.

There is also some holes drilled in the roof from a previously installed roof rack that need to be addressed. PO just filled them with clear silicone to keep water out.

Absolutely!!! :lol: Honestly want to travel in this thing and have power plus reliability. I'm a SBC fan and have had plenty of them, but LS is the way to go.
