66' Suburban..what i've been up to....
Although I am a daily visitor to the site, I rarely post. First off I would like to thank all of you who contribute. i have learned loads of great info regarding these trucks since I have joined. Based on others projects, i have performed tasks that I wouldnt have had the guts to try without your help.
Anyhow, this all started a little over a year ago. I bought 4 60-66 trucks, all for less that $300 each off of craigslist and built this with the best parts: It was a fun truck, but had some rust issues with the cab around the windshield and down the passenger door post. This is what it looked like: So...based on that amount of rust, I decided to look for a new cab. Well, a 1966 suburban showed up on craigslist about that time, I thought, why not. After a week of negotiating the burb was mine. Here it is the day i brought it home: All my good stuff that i put on the truck would transfer over, no problem. So the mechanical portion of the build should be simple. I knew the burb needed a "little" floorwork, so I went to tearing out the mouse urine soaked plywood floor and carpet...and this is what I found...........
