Got a new toy last night... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Number98 · 04-16-2009, 10:16 PM

You guys might remeber this one for sale a while back, I picked it up from HartRod and he stored it for me in New Mexico until I could get it here! I was traveling so much with work and all last year it sat out there until now but I am glad it's finally here!

Thanks again to Rob, he is a great guy to deal with!

Number98 · 04-16-2009, 10:17 PM

A couple night shots I thought were cool.....

Grapdawg · 04-16-2009, 10:19 PM

That is one solid project. What are your plans with the beauty?

LOW DOUGH · 04-16-2009, 10:21 PM

Cool! Looks like it is in good shape. I see the dog checking it out too. I can tell he/she likes it.

**Hart_Rod** · 04-16-2009, 11:12 PM

Where'd all the extra parts go? I swear it was full when it left here,

. You forgot to show them the money shot under the hood....................

.

LOW DOUGH · 04-16-2009, 11:29 PM

what's under the hood? A BBC maybe? Or maybe an LSx motor?

Is that rear A/C up there? Did they have that option?

No more questions....... for now

Longhorn Man · 04-16-2009, 11:33 PM

being a 69, with a high hump, I'm betting it's a 396... or at least, it was originally.

72BlckButy · 04-17-2009, 08:19 AM

What a clean looking burb, so what are your plans for it?

chrislehr · 04-17-2009, 10:23 AM

Nice score!!!

Longhorn Man · 04-17-2009, 05:03 PM

Not too long, one of the easiest mods I have ever been a part of.... plus someone else on the board did a write up on it a while back.

I ended up using the same ones Rob used, Strong Arm lift supports #4220. Picked them up at Advanced Auto Parts, I may swap them out later, these work great but I would'nt mind a couple more inches of lift out of them. Works good though, the hatch will basically raise itself now plus the lift supports look alot cleaner than the old style links.

Longhorn Man · 04-18-2009, 07:44 PM

sweet... thanks
I've been considering this, but there's something, kinda interesting when people see the stock set up.

Number98 · 04-20-2009, 10:09 PM

No problem....

You know, I am glad I picked up a burb! I remember when I got my first 67-72 pickup and a friend of mine who does bodywork was working on a 72 burb and I never paid "that" much attention to it because I was just not into burbs. But... over the years I have seen some very sweet burbs and they got my wheels turning as to how cool one can be. I can thank a few of you board members for this as well.... here are a couple pics of the ones that really got me wanting a big boned ride!
