newbe 72 burb
Wow awesome site. I was told about this site a week ago by ETsC10 and decided to add some pictures of my 72 burban driving project.
I've been looking for a good 67-72 Suburban for years, in a good price range and not to much rust. I found this one on Craigslist about 6 miles from my house. I picked this up around February of last year and it was really rough and moldy on the inside with the stock interior and alot of rust in the rockers, quarters and floorboards that I quickly replaced with patch panels. I stripped the inside and cleaned it up, putting in new carpet and seats (changing them out again this summer to a different set with buckets). I painted the panels and added a good steering wheel and a clean gauge face. I still need to put in a headliner. Then replaced the 15x10 Western wheels, rotted front fenders, broken grille, and twisted bumpers (I think this used to haul a canoe beacause of the bolts that were on the old bumpers). Next project is the exterior. I'm still repairing the rest of the rust plus looking to add the lower trim (if I can find a good set), and lower this land yacht with coils and shocks if and when I could figure out the right drop. Thanks |
