My 73 Suburban, I'm gathering parts to lay it out on the rockers.

I like your Burb. I've been wantin to bag mine but the back is a pain in the a$$. that and I use mine as a daily driver. Start a build thread so we can see how you do it.

This is what I'm workin with, I'd love to put it on the ground!

Re: Show me your projects and builds

when i bought it for $500, a little rough running but nothing draining the gas tanks, cleaning the carb, new oil and all the filters couldn't fix...she fired right up and has been a sweetheart since.



I don't have any new pics (yet) but i have replaced the cab corners, corners of the wheel arches and a chunk of the bed floor. Right now shes in her first coat of primer and i'm just trying to get some time to block it and lay down another coat, block, paint, clear and drive her.

Oh and I'm still collecting parts for the engine rebuild that's in the near future.

Re: Show me your projects and builds

This was my dads truck since I was born. Now it's my 4 year project. There has been school, jobs, marriage and now a brand new baby boy. It seems like it will never get done but I'm still grinding away at it.

I'd say you're doing quite well at your current pace!

Look'n Good!
