Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
BigDav,
My 69 is a solid olive green...someone told me it was a one coat paint - poly?? (don't know what they call that). I also noticed in an earlier picture his dash color looks identical to my interior and exterior olive green. I really like the exterior green on his Sub, but it does look a bit more "green" than my olive green or even his dash green. |

Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
Hi WannaBe68, BigDav is right, the exterior has been painted. I am pretty sure the interior paint is original. The truck came with pretty good documentation on the build and I can check the documents for exterior paint code if you need. Be glad to get more pics if you need too.
You have a good description of the exterior color, it looks more green...a bit sharper than the interior. |

Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
Well, I went through the information I have on the Burb and there isn't any paint code information that I could find. BigDav is correct, the b pillar is original and the doors are painted same as exterior color.
It was a nice week end to have the Burb out. |

Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
Your Burban is very nice. I just read the thread and forgive me if I missed it but you said it had some issues with the exhaust to fix? Thats one of the big items left on my list and I was wondering what you found wrong, so maybe I can avoid the same pitfall.
Thanks. VC

Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
Thanks VC...the exhaust on this one is "Ok". I don't like the exit location and would rather have the exhaust run out the back.
Check out Bowtieguy79's build thread above as he updated his exhaust and I like how it came out. |

Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
Cool thanks for the tip. I will check it out. Although with my deformed lower gate preventing a good seal I'm probably going to end up going out the side.

Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
Until I get time and funds to redo the interior I will have to live with it. Then its going to be a slide hammer or to cut it open and jack it up repair. Decisions decisions. Between the windows rattling in their frames and the stupid exhaust dumping at the crossmember I never noticed it. There was no point in turning the radio on unless you were at a red light. Maybe I'll just call the dealer and order a new one.
 I have been experimenting with alternate weatherstripping to seal it up, maybe I'll get lucky.

Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
HO455...hopefully that will work out for the rear gap on your Burb.
Thanks Kehstr... Occasionally there is a question about drop and tire size. Since I bought this just as it is I don't know what drop is on it. Here is the tire size.... |

Re: Finally found a Burb and it followed me home.
Your oldest grandson must be getting close to driving age, is he asking you about taking it for a spin when he has his license?
