Picked up my burb yesterday - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I went down to Olive Branch, MS to pick up my 72 burb yesterday. It was about a 4 hour trip. I started a build thread in the projects section

Very cool, can't wait to see some progress. I've been thinking of selling my s-trucks and buying one.

Looks like a big project

Won't it be hard to cut in some tail lights???? (j/k).
I'd say it looks like an awesome starting point if I weren't so jealous :\

Looking at it I can see the hole for the tail light cover. I think I should be able to drill a small hole and then cut it back out to use the original tail lights again. Hopefully

is the back of the excursion full of parts?

5150 · 03-22-2011, 11:27 PM

No, the back of the burb was. Someone stole a few parts from him while it was in storage.

personally I've always liked the look of the late model mid 90s caddy tail lights on these burbs sinse you got the chance just my 2 cents

Looks like a very solid Burb. Best wishes on a future great build.
