That's great, glad it worked out for you. Hopefully you mentioned my name so next time I'm at his place he will give me another free hot wheel style truck for my grandson

I actually did mention that someone on the forum referred me, though I didn't remember a name. Fell free to take credit, and put the hot wheels on my tab.

Very nice looking truck. Do you have any more pictures of the interior and how you mounted the rear 3rd row seat?

That's on my bucket list to go on the HRPT one day with my 67 Burb.

Re: 67-72 Burbs and Panels 2wheel drive only

Wayne,

Truck looks great with the new wheels. It just needs a little altitude adjustment, in my opinion. How do you like driving the truck with those mirrors? I was on the fence about purchasing a set and went with the stock mirrors instead. I thought the mirrors on your truck wouldn't give much visibility.

Nick

Thank you and I agree on the altitude adjustment, Nick. I've been researching my options with another couple inches of drop.

The mirrors were on the truck when I purchased it. Visibility is very good on the driver's side, I can't see the passenger side mirror at all - it's only there for visual balance. With the expanse of glass in the Suburban, I don't have any issues with visibility when driving, day or night.

Thanks! I can't say enough how happy I am with the way it turned out. I have been driving it everyday since I put the new wheels/tires on

That is nice. Is it on springs or bagged? Some day I would like to get back east and do Power tour.

Looks like a nice start. Did it spend it's whole life in Arizona? Nice truck to start with.

Yes it was up in Winslow AZ it has very little rot needs both front outer rockers and lower outer rear 1/4s. Everything else rock solid. I was up there looking at a 67 lwb and this was sitting on the other side of the street so I went over there and asked if it was for sale the owner said sure. It will be fun. Thanx

Re: 67-72 Burbs and Panels 2wheel drive only

I bought this 1971 C20 in Portland Oregon in 2015. It was a BB Burb with auto trans and buckets /console, tilt, tach and the rear tailgate door. After pondering for a year and some whether to redo it and install A/C I decided to sell it. The sideways pic is in front of Classic Heartbeat in Olympia Washington as I stopped there and bought some parts on the way home.
