Is it a burb or is it a truck? You decide.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Check this out,

I took a pic of this at the Turlock Swapmeet today... very different. The owner also had done some mods on the dash, put a 73-76 dash, just the instrument panel and what not, left the orig. glove box door.

Anyway, just thought you all would like to see some pics of this.

nice chopped burb...err, Avalanche. I see that one has the "cladding delete" option

GloryHound · 05-01-2005, 07:57 PM

Really clean. Does it still have the third door. If I had a burb that would be the way I would go also. Probably put a wood bed in it also for added factory look!

longnlow72 · 05-01-2005, 09:09 PM

thats really sweet! get any motor or interior pics? or any others at all?

**Palf70Step** · 05-01-2005, 09:13 PM

I like. That looks real nice.

The IH version was the "Wagonmaster."

The Traveler was the extended wheelbase SII introduced in '76.

Is that 4x4? pics are kinda dark.

haha

Dick Dale · 05-01-2005, 11:57 PM

I would pay good money for one(if I had any).

"Is it a burb or is it a truck?"

Yup...

It's nice is what it is. That's what I wanna do someday.

4x4Poet · 05-02-2005, 01:36 AM

Nice fuel door, too. I'm guessing he welded up the tailgate area.

I'd like to see a pic of the third door area, as well.

Chevyboy1962 · 05-02-2005, 02:18 AM

I saw the '67 in person today too.

I 've seen it running around Mo'town alot. It's pretty clean, but the inside of the bed needs some attention, and the roof just don't look right. If a truck cab roof was grafted to the back half of the roof, it would look like it rolled right out of the factory.

The price tag was about $9,500 I think.

Joe67 · 05-02-2005, 08:15 AM

Very interesting truck

67ChevyRedneck · 05-02-2005, 09:15 AM

It's a burbalanche. I like it. It's a crew cab with a decent sized bed, just molded together. I like that its very simple and clean. I know it would have been way too much work, but a 4th door woulda been super cool.

That roof line doesn't look right to me, seems like crew cabs have a flatter roof. WTF do I know.
I like that idea 67-72 Avalanche, that truck looks clean!

**John Fabris** · 05-02-2005, 04:20 PM

I have seen it is in person, and it appears to be a very good job, for me, I mourned for it as it was a factory 67 K10 4x4 suburban, one of 166 made that year...

lilred67 · 05-02-2005, 05:53 PM

very nice,wish i had it.

chickenwing · 05-02-2005, 05:57 PM

More Turlock swap meet pics here. I took a few of the burbalanch too. Missed the 3rd door though. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s....php3?t=153888

FRENCHBLUE72 · 05-02-2005, 07:29 PM

That is a very well done looking conversion...

**special-K** · 05-02-2005, 10:34 PM

1969GMC,thanks for straightening that out.Traveler came to mind but didn`t seem right.I should have took more time to recall.Not as up on IH as you.That`burb is just like one,isn`t it.
