Hart_Rod, that Burb was very nice...has the right look! It may be for sale.
Jim, I am trying to be adopted so I am first in line. ![]() FedEx pulled up today with a big box from Ride Tech. I didn't take a pic...so imagine a picture of a box....here. |

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Not much shop time lately with yard work. We did take the Grandsons to a car show last week end and had a nice time.
The 35 Chevy did go to a new home so I am done waffling on that one....finally down to one project! Checked out the Ride Tech components. They sent an extra compressor that I will need to send back. Fun afternoon with Grandsons! |

I really don't like the sound of this one project thing. You need more distractions in your life.

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
congrats on selling the 35'! I'm sure that was tough to let go of. but now you can focus extra time on the sub you've waiting to build for decades!

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
as sad as it is to see the 35 go, thats money in your pocket and a smile on another guys face. I'm sure it will see the road soon. and perhaps your burb can see the road sooner.
ridetech stuff looks nice.

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Thanks guy, it was a happy and kinda sad day so you all nailed it. The 35 went to a Chevy collector in Joplin, MO with resources to do it right so the car is in really good hands. Great people that want me to come down for a visit and check out their cars.
Marc...love the humor! The race is on! Jim...Good luck with the surgery. Now, time permitting I can focus on one project. First thing will be to get the shop cleaned and organized. I can't stand the mess. |

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Are the ride tech goodies for your new square suburban or your old rounded off one? It's hard to keep track of all of your wheeling and dealing.

Good advice Kees that I plan to follow. Yeah, that is the front half of our shop and it is all getting pretty full. So I gotta stick with your advice. Thanks on the 56....it looks decent in the right light..LOL.

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
There come a time where you just have to let go. It's sad when you have to let them go, hoping they go to a good home. But then on to new and better projects. Been there done that. Good luck with the air ride.

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Doug,
I really dig your Suburban and like the direction you are going with the build. I did a couple 47-53 trucks years ago and always liked them (except the frame pinching in near the motor causing the small blocks to need to be raised). I wanted to see what these year (era) trucks look like so I searched and found a couple cool pics. Hope you don't mind I share em on your thread. Not trying to hijack or nothing. (some guys get their panties in a twist). Not me, I invite anyone who wants to chime in on my page, post anything they want especially their truck with a similar theme or style. The more the merrier is my motto. Here's a couple I found;
