I love this Burb! It makes me feel funny inside.

Great looking interior!! I see that the front seat is one piece. How do you get into the back? Also -- looks like some power seat controls hiding under the edge. Details? Thanks Jim

Thanks Jim, That pic is before I finished interior. I have the jump seat that folds forward in now. The switches are for the air ride. Just didn't want them on the dash. Thanks again..

I love this burb! If you every seriously consider selling it please give me a chance to visit with you on the subject! No I am not kidding! Great job.

Hey thanks for the compliment !!! I have a friend that lives in Katy, Jay Gillentine. We not gonna make it to March GGs but we make Pate swap meet in April. My love is finding them, having a vision then putting them back on the road. Over time I fall out of love with them, let them go then start another. I'm still in love with the burb right now but I've been having visions lately

I don't know Jay. Does he have any classics? I really like owning and driving them way more than building! I too have a 64 suburban that we just purchased that is just a shell. No engine or trans or seats. Can't wait to drive it someday in the future. We have listed our 72 burb on a couple of sites including this one to fund the 64 project. My vision is almost the same as your completed one.

Thanks for leading the way and finishing yours, that inspired me to get one.

[jmedero]

Visions.... Just give us enough heads up to sell everything and clear the garage. Lol

[C10_ustacould]

Brother, you better start prioritizing the takers 'cuz there's going to be a bunch of them if you ever decide to let it go.

I have to look at this thing everyday.........sometimes more than once.............
Jealous is not enough "word" to describe how I feel when I pass

You got my vote too, but the blue K5 was a close 2nd for me

Thanks for the compliment and vote..

Love your Suburban, my 66 is headed a similar direction. It is currently apart and going through the changes.

[Modges'66]

Sorry, but I couldn't seem to find it in your thread, who's carpet did you use?
That burb looks soooo sweet!

Thanks man!! I ordered carpet from stockinteriors.com

[Modges'66]

Thanks for the info!
Are you happy with it?
What options did you order?
Is there Jute backing on the carpet? I already have a rubberized sound-deadener everywhere, but I want this to be silent!
The fact that you can order matching floor-mats & carpet for the rear cab-wall are a bonus!
Let me know your thoughts for a pick-up!

[lowbuck]

what is your steering wheel from or is it aftermarket?

I just ordered truck carpet with high hump and carpet by the yard to lay in back. There is only padding under your feet not the hump. I insulated my floor,roof,1/4 panels and inside doors with double bubble from Lowes plus undercoated the bottom. It's so well insulated I can't here the exhaust from inside. Thanks hope some of this helps..
