My sons burb

This is the burb I gave my oldest son. It needs a new engine, but I gave him one of those too. I told him I will be happy to help swap out the engines but I wasnt going to do it for him.

I also told him since he cant seem to find the time to work on this maybe he should tarp it.....

Re: My sons burb

haha, thats a slick burb, should be nice when done. My dad gave me my first 4 trucks, im on my 6th or 7th truck (using the 6th to fix the seventh) and still have every one of the old rigs. I also have a camaro and chevelle, both my dad gave me, and i have had to work on every one of those cars. I NEVER go to shops, its just our style, if we cnat do it, what the heck is wrong with it?

Re: My sons burb

Nice truck (accept for all that Poop!) I,to am building my 1st. truck, and my father donated his 1st. motor and Pro-Street tires & Wheels among many other things. I think it's a great jesture on the part of the fathers out there, to "lead, but not cary", if you know what I mean. I had a 78 "burb (that ironically) pops gave me for hauling around band equip. and Man do I miss that truck! Well good luck w/ your father & son project.......p.s. try hanging up a Scarecrow to keep those birds away!

Re: My sons burb

Nice burb, sure would be a ncie start to a restoration!! I think my restoration would start as follows...

Step 1- Get rid of bird poop
Step 2-Get rid of birds

and so on and so on

Re: My sons burb

that wouldn't be patina... that would be ruined paint induced by not taking care of the truck.
Sorry, that word is thrown around too much around here.

Re: My sons burb

You guys crack me up....I will say this though, the paint was already hammered, otherwise I would have covered it up. I was hoping all the pootina would motivate him to come out and work on it.

Re: My sons burb

That's not covered in bird turds, that's BTC (Bird Turd Camo) paint. Put a sun roof in it and it would make a great blind for duck hunting.
