Man, Rob,... The Coys fit good!
You must have a 71-72 rearend under it.
Now just come down another inch in the rear.
Or,... maybe just throw a bag on the rear for "cough" adjustability.
(You know,... incase you have to haul something heavy)

CheyenneShop · 02-26-2010, 04:45 PM

Rob, I too love the Coy's - now lets see them on the Superburb, since they were just "laying around"!

LOW DOUGH · 02-26-2010, 04:58 PM

Well, it looks good with the Coys but I don't think it looks right. I guess I am used to seeing the Welds or Rallies on it. I just got four 7" Rallies. I gave two to a buddy and I am going to put the other two on the front of mine. They were free to me.

To do fit really well. I would probably go with a 5" backspacing instead of the 5.5". Great suggestions and probably the reason I won't change, one thing keeps leading to another......

I know what you're saying. I keep changing my mind....

CheyenneShop · 02-26-2010, 05:50 PM

Yes it will! I think it looks great. Do you like it, or you still thinking Billit Specialties?

SuperBurb is SuperBad!!

big_al_71 · 02-26-2010, 06:04 PM

Rob for the price Coys are the BEST cheap good wheels out.....

72BlckButy · 02-26-2010, 10:01 PM

Rob, the Coy's fit the S/C nicely; I like them.

msgross · 02-27-2010, 09:27 AM

looks nice...

Alan's Classic · 03-04-2010, 01:06 AM

Yep, I subscribed. Nice work

**Hart_Rod** · 03-12-2010, 11:26 PM

Small update. I picked these stainless vent shades up off the board.

VA72C10 · 03-13-2010, 01:04 AM

Usually not a fan of those, but they work on that truck.

Bennett68C10 · 03-30-2010, 06:01 PM

Just went thru your whole thread i love this truck it is bad ass. I prefer the look of the welds the best, that fat rear tire is insane looking i love it. Beautiful truck man.

I'm getting ready to do a radiator/electric fan swap. I've got the current setup (radiator/e-fan/tranny cooler) listed on the parts board if anyone is interested. There's nothing wrong with the current setup, I just want to change it to make it a little cleaner. Here's the link:

VA72C10 · 04-09-2010, 10:49 AM

It's funny how certain parts look "right" on certain trucks. Like my friends 49 GMC with the sun visor that sticks over the windshield. I personally HATE them on other trucks but LOVE them on 49-52's

tommyd241 · 04-09-2010, 08:25 PM

Awesome truck Rob. Subscribed.

I totally agree with you.

Thanks Tommy. Looks like you're finally getting to do some work on your "farm truck" too,

.

tommyd241 · 04-09-2010, 09:42 PM

Yes Sir. It's about time I give her some much deserved attention. I'm definitely gonna put that bumper you gave me on the rear before I do a flip-kit.

I can't wait to see how it comes out.

Is this to hi-tech for the farm truck?

Satin black or silver??

68 short step · 04-10-2010, 03:32 PM

i vote black

djracer · 04-10-2010, 04:37 PM

That's kinda the way I was leaning. Although silver would add a little more color under the hood...

Hart Rod, what fan and shroud setup is that in post #268? Looks like it fits the Stock? radiator pretty good.

I originally bought this for the burb but I found something a little "neater",

. Here's a few links for the fan setup:
