I like the third brake light! Progress is a good thing.

What are you using to hook up the shift linkage? I assume the factory stuff will not clear those headers. Thanks

I have a LOKAR setup that I'm probably going to use. I also have the factory cable setup from the 4L60E that I could also use.

It will be in my buddy's shop while he's finishing the paint. If he gets it done by Christmas I may drag it out here......

Looks very nice in red!! Going to be a sweet burb. Didn't know there was a stick on trim kit. Can't wait to see how that turns out. I am sure it will be nice.

That's correct. After discussing it with my painter buddy, we decided that would be the easiest way to do it. I'm pretty sure that's how the factory did it also.

Wow I really dont spend enough time in the projects section. I can not believe I havent seen this thread until today. That is going to be one bad a$$ ride when it is done. Keep up the good work. As much as I like all 67-72 projects, seeing suburban build threads always gets me the most excited.
