Re: started working on the 65 suburban
Looking good Dave!! I like the intake tubes stretching out like that.
We got ours roadworthy and I put at least a 100 miles on it running around town today...really digging it. ![]()

Re: started working on the 65 suburban
You have a great looking suburban here and I really like what you are doing to it. Keep at it and hopefully your back will let you continue on. I know about back issues, as my older brother has a bad back (crushed discs as a teenager) and it has affected his own truck and car builds over the years. Keep up the updates as you can and hopefully you will be able to get it running down the road soon!

Re: started working on the 65 suburban
here is a couple more pics of the inner fender i am trying to fit in the front i think i am going to widen it to make it work better.
i am using the porterbuilt front end to narrow the front but i am still very close to the fender and the hood not much turning room i am going to have to try to figure out a way to get some more turning room! any one with any ideas i am all ears!!!!! |
