Re: Rising from the Ashes
I have a Suburban body,need a little rust repair, but if you want it I could get to you, I was going to scrap it, but would rather see another Suburban live if possible? 100.00 for the metal and it has a clear title, it has all the glass, but I promised the fourth (where there is no door) window to a guy, up by Chicago funny enough. If not, I might be interested in yours for parts.

Re: Rising from the Ashes
Wow!! Really sorry to hear about this. I think if I were you I would be so sick I wouldn't even be able to post about what happened. Hope to see you bring this phoenix back from the ashes. Good luck finding a tub.

Re: Rising from the Ashes
Wow Blackrider! I cannot believe it. I haven't been too active reading post and I missed this somehow. You gotta find a body to go on top of that good frame to get you back in business.

Re: Rising from the Ashes
find a tub that is rusted beyond belief and just grab the roof (shouldn't be too rusty). if the frame is good, a competent body shop should be able to straighten the lower sheetmetal.

Re: Rising from the Ashes
She is done for and gone. I am now looking for another 4x4 and will just start over after the move.

Re: Rising from the Ashes

Re: Rising from the Ashes
I am pretty (VERY) attached, I sold my last Burb about 5 years ago and have dreaded it since (I actually sold two a 72 2wd orange and white w/highlander and a nearly all original 68 with a big journal 327 with low miles in 4X4, I really miss that one!!), now I want to build a twin to the 68 I sold, this one will get the 68 nose in the picts (check the link to the thread) and a 4X4 frame, chasis would be a serious kick in the get er done time frame, planning a trip to AZ anytime!!

Re: Rising from the Ashes
All I can say is, wow! So sorry to see your ol' girl take such a hard hit. I hope you can some how resurrect her, what with all the other stuff that probably got turned upside down in that weather.
Good luck in raising the phoenix, they always have a way of coming back to life!
