I'm a new meber here, and I just love this thread

This is my car, 1966 C10 Suburban, who has been rodded before it came to Norway. It came here in 2008 from Scotchdale, Arizona, and i bought it last summer. The car is a joy to drive with its 454CBB machine and 400 turbomatic gearbox. The suspension and bakes are still original, but I consider to rebuild it to diskbrakes and a 2 way system from a g20 van. The rear axle is still original too, but I'm going to change it to a 10 bolt axle.
The big plan is to get it leagal to drive here on norwegian plates.

A few more pics of my sweet Carry-All
I even managed to get a price in a lokal show, since the car is rare here in Norway, and people actually likes the bully-look on it I'm keeping the look btw Inside, the doors, roof and dash is patina, the floor in the back is still wood, and all 3 seatroads is fixed with new leather.

Welcome aboard! That's a cool Burb, & it looks to be very solid. Sounds like you have good plans for it. Good luck, & have fun. Keep us updated.

very cool ..what do you need to get it legal in norway?

[Southcity]

I am curious to know as well, rules are a bit more strict outside the US to legally drive a US built auto, it would be great to see some pics of your Burban driving on the road with the other European models.

[pimpston65]

Very nice looking truck, Willkömmen to the board.

Here's something different;

This Burb has served, back in the day, as an EMT vehicle in Israel (what is known here as Magen David)- see it in a period photo:



Later sold, and was left to rot somewhere in Jerusalem, last year it was rescued and made drive-able again. I took it's photo in May, and it looked like this:



Well, some weeks ago the new owner was finished with its restoration and a ceremony (organized by the local classic cars club) was held upon which the Burb was revealed, together with modern EMTs on site...:












Now, a personal note: I have a special relation to this Burb, as it was owned by my Mom's uncle! I was not aware of this at the time, otherwise you would have seen a "my new Burb" thread... and not an EMT restoration but a more modified Burb, something along the lines of this Burb, which was also at the event:




However, I feel that it's very responsible of the current owner to restore the Burb to its service days' looks- it is a part of Israel's past and nowadays, NOBODY thinks about preservation of these vehicles, except private individuals.

^^^ Very cool! While the outside looks great, I can't help but wonder why there wasn't more attention to detail under the hood. Regardless, I like the fact that it was kept as an ambulance. Think of all the stories that thing could tell if it could talk!

Thanks, mate.

Yes, I also think the engine could have been better displayed...

See the interior:

[A.T. RockDriller]

Very cool.
I sure think that spare was meant to be mounted under the rear deck...considering the custom rear bumper. I
Beautiful, none the less.

two different trucks that you are looking at. look at the rear doors they are different .
I was looking at it all wrong that other door is to the frt and that spare tire is mounted forward. I was looking at it, thinking automatically that the spare would have been mounted to the back. I guess that the thought may be that if they did get a flat that the s-pare would be a lot more readily available up top if they needed to change a tire in a hurry

My wifes in progress 63.

[Rickey-Lee]

Saved this "Creampuff" from the crusher. Sitting 13 years. Came with a strong 327 and uninstalled, rebuilt 400 tranny. Did disc brake conversion with 2 1/2" drop spindles, 2" drop springs in front, 5" in the back. Scored some OG camper special rims 15x8's and wrapped 'em in some 225/75 tires. Now it's time for a ton of body and interior work.
