Just reading through your build and I have to say, these seats are fantastic! Some day I hope I can find someone nearby me to replicate them!

Enjoying reading your build!

Got my burb in the Goodguys show this weekend. Had some nice neighbors. Even got to check out the truck that I got the ideas for my seats out in person. It was a great weekend for a show. It was cool to check out some of the rides from other members. Even almost ended up selling my ride.

[zellway]

Got over to Dino's for the party. Got to meet some great guys and see some great trucks! Sorry for the bad pic's, Night time pic's on a cell phone.

looking good, sir

Some leaking valve covers and a heater core started me on a roll of stuff. Sometimes I get in the "lets do as much as I can when it's down" mode.

you don't find that clean and rust free trucks on this coast, very fine find

[zellway]

Don't know how I feel about the dashpad but it is nice. I will try and get better pic's. I have to work out what I will be doing for wheels and tires next.

Love the bench, great job. But ... the dash ... I really really love that! I was thinking about doing my dash like that but had never seen one ... awesome!

Took a little 500 mile trip this weekend. Had to break in the seats! Went to Nogales AZ. No problems and got just over 20 mpg. I need to get the sway bars installed. With some of the roads we had to take and crazy drive ways the back tires would rub on the inside of the rear fender wells. We took some time to explore the town a bit. They just got done filming "Hangover 3" down there. My dad works at the post office and they used it at the jail for the movie.

My dad's 70 is waiting for me to replace the freeze plugs. I want to get more done on this truck. When I get the new tires for the Suburban the rally wheels will end up on his truck.

[zellway]

I need to get a camera, cell phone pic's are just not as nice. I got some tires mounted on the stock wheels and cleaned up a set of wheel covers. The PO gave me what looks to be the stock dog dish hub caps. I'm going to clean them up and see how they look. With the taller tires on it looks like there is no drop on this thing any more! If I had this Suburban just a few years ago it would have air ride and a LS in it. That's not to say it's out of the question but with no one biting on my other suburban it might just have to get all the custom work and keep this one as my stocker.

Thanks guys. There was not much I needed to do, but getting all that black paint off and getting the seats done have maid it look like much better in my book. The dash pad has grown on me and i'm happy I let him do what he felt would look good. I keep thinking air ride might be something I do soon. I also want to look into adding rear A/C.

[zellway]

Not much of a update, Got my starter and alternator back from the rebuild. I also cleaned up the mount and got it painted. I told my self I would not pull the motor on this till 90k so it will be some time till I get the rest all clean and painted. Just enjoying driving it. I took the next week off to get some work done before Good guys. I have a long list of little things that will get done. I will do my best to get good pic's.

Burb looks great! Man with that kind of MPG, AC that keeps up in 112 heat without overheating, and that killer interior I'd stick a fork in her and call it done!

NICE 'Burban! Everything you've done has made it better. Jealous of your Dino's attendance. Someday...

Thanks. I have not done much but I think it has all been in the right direction. It was a great time at the good guys and Dino's.
