66 "burby"
Well I finally got some pics of my 66 Suburban - It's been one done since April. I bought it last year out of Montana. It is Original paint and original dents. Was runnning and driving when I got it - 283 - 373 Posi.
Done a frame off, to do all lines, and paint.
Now - 07' 5.3 and 4L80e, cruise, Vintage A/C, Air-ride, late-model Suburban seats.

Re: 66 "burby"
It's perfect! It looks like a ball to drive, and I'll bet it's a great driver, too.

Did you shoot a satin clear over the original paint to preserve it? The patina looks awesome.

Drivers seat is power, passenger seat is manual - it slides and the back tilts forward - easy to get into the 2nd seat. The back on 2nd(and 3rd) fold down to allow access to 3rd seat.
I'm 6'1" and and can get 3rd seat pretty easy.
Both seats are removeable.
